Cadbury Egg Stuffed Cookies (Printable Version)

Chewy chocolate chip cookies filled with melted Cadbury Creme Egg for a rich, indulgent twist.

# What You Need:

→ Dairy & Eggs

01 - 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
02 - 2 large eggs
03 - 2 teaspoons vanilla extract

→ Sugars

04 - 1 cup packed brown sugar
05 - 1/2 cup granulated sugar

→ Dry Ingredients

06 - 3 cups all-purpose flour
07 - 1 teaspoon baking soda
08 - 1/2 teaspoon salt

→ Chocolate

09 - 1 1/2 cups semisweet chocolate chips

→ Candy

10 - 12 mini Cadbury Creme Eggs, unwrapped and chilled

# Directions:

01 - Preheat oven to 350°F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
02 - In a large bowl, cream together softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, approximately 2-3 minutes.
03 - Beat in eggs one at a time, then add vanilla extract and mix until fully combined.
04 - In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt.
05 - Gradually add dry ingredients to wet ingredients, mixing just until incorporated.
06 - Fold chocolate chips into the cookie dough.
07 - Scoop approximately 2 tablespoons of dough and flatten into a disk. Place one chilled Cadbury Creme Egg in the center, then wrap dough around the egg to seal completely. Repeat with remaining dough and eggs.
08 - Place stuffed dough balls onto prepared baking sheets, spacing them 2 inches apart.
09 - Bake for 12-14 minutes, or until cookies are golden brown around the edges but still slightly soft in the center.
10 - Allow cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

# Expert Tips:

01 -
  • The surprise center turns an ordinary cookie into an unforgettable moment of delight.
  • They're actually easier to make than they look, and people will think you've mastered some secret technique.
02 -
  • Those Cadbury Eggs must be chilled or they'll melt straight through your dough and disappear into the oven—learned this the hard way and had to explain chocolate residue to my landlord.
  • The magic happens in the last minute of baking when the edges set but the center stays soft, so set a timer and check at 12 minutes, not 14.
03 -
  • Room temperature ingredients mix more smoothly and create better texture than cold ones, so pull your butter and eggs out about 30 minutes before baking.
  • The key to perfect gooey centers is using mini Cadbury Eggs straight from the fridge and watching your oven temperature—an oven thermometer is worth its weight in gold here.
