Chocolate Mini Egg Cookie

I found this idea with using mini eggs from my favorite magazine www.kraft.ca.  Thank you Kraft for the idea.  I did however change up the actual cookie dough recipe from what they use.  I just wanted to be a little different and try my favorite chocolate chip cookie recipe with the candy coated chocolate pieces of heaven.  This is a cookie that you need to take caution with keeping them on your kitchen counter.  They WILL call you name....

How to make these fabulous cookies...

2 1\4 cups all purpose flour,
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp salt
1 cup of butter
1 tsp pure vanilla extract
3\4 cup granulated sugar
3\4 cup brown sugar
2 large eggs
1-2 cups of mini candy covered chocolate eggs
1 cup of mini semi sweet chocolate chips

1. Preheat your oven at 375 degrees

2. In a small bowl; mix together flour, baking soda & salt.

3. In a larger bowl{ or your kitchen aid bowl} mix together granulated sugar, brown sugar, softened butter and vanilla until it becomes creamy.  Then add each of the 2 eggs one at a time making sure they are mixed in well.

4. Gradually add the flour to the sugar mixture. and blend.

5.  Stir in the mini chocolate chips,  Then on a pan with parchment paper drop each cookie by a rounded tbsp. And top each cookie with 3 or more desired candy coated chocolate eggs.

6. Cook in the oven for 9-11 minutes depending on oven.  I like to cook them less time because remember { they will cook on the pan even when they are not in the oven. Giving you the best chewy cookie}

Enjoy
