Need an Easter Treat? Bake Playful Chocolate Mini Egg Cookies

I tried to make homemade peeps this week and I failed miserably, over and over and over. I finally gave up on it and remembered that theyre kinda gross anyway. I never really liked em as a kid and always loved those Cadbury pastel chocolate mini eggs way more!

I decided to grab a bag that I had (yes, I bought maybe way too many bags while I was at the drug store but they were on sale!) and chop up the eggs and fold them into the most delicious chocolate cookie batter ever.

The results were heavenly. The cookies are delicious when eaten warm or at room temperature with a glass of cold milk. The mini eggs are so pretty scattered throughout the batter and since I was feeling indulgent, I scooped the cookies with a pretty big cookie scoop. Feel free to make them more treat size with a smaller cookie scoop.

Easter is next weekend and I hope these find their way to your table!
