Easter Cookies

These possibly have to be some of the best cookies I have ever tasted. Mainly because it combines two of my favourite things- Cookie and Cadbury Mini Eggs! I have already gone through three bags of them and have just discovered the white chocolate ones- amazing!

This was also the first time I have made cookies completely from scratch, to save time I usually just buy a pre-packaged cookie mixture. Anyway on to the recipe, If you would like to make these for yourself.

You will need:

• 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 tsp baking powder
• 1 tsp salt
• 1 cup (2 sticks) butter
• 3/4 cup granulated sugar
• 3/4 cup brown sugar
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 2 large eggs
• a good amount of Cadbury Mini Eggs

Method:

1. Combine flour baking soda and salt in a small bowl and set aside. 
2. beat butter, sugar, brown sugar and vanilla extract in a large bowl (or mixer if you have one) until creamy. 
3. Add eggs, beating well after adding each one. 
4. Gradually beat in the flour mixture a bit at a time.
5. Add the Mini Eggs to the mixture.
6. Spoon, using a tablespoon, onto a cookie sheet and bake for 9-11 minutes or until golden brown. 
7. Remove cookies and place on wire rack to cool.
8. Enjoy! 

I managed to make about 15 cookies using the mixture. The large size of the Mini Eggs decreases the amount you could make if just using regular chocolate chips.
