Ingredients
Scale
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
- 1 & 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips
- 3/4 cup chopped cadbury mini eggs
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 325F and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat, stirring occasionally until it turns golden brown and has a nutty aroma. Remove from heat and cool in a separate bowl.
- Mix the brown sugar and granulated sugar into the cooled brown butter until well combined. Then add the egg and vanilla extract, whisking until smooth.
- In another bowl, combine the flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually mix the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined.
- Fold in the mini chocolate chips and chopped Cadbury mini eggs until evenly distributed.
- Scoop rounded balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets using a large cookie scoop or spoon.
- Bake for 13 minutes or until the edges are set while the centers remain slightly soft.
- Allow cooling on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
Ensure the brown butter has cooled before mixing with the sugars to prevent the egg from cooking.
For a chewy texture, do not overbake the cookies; they should be golden around the edges and soft in the middle.
You can substitute Cadbury eggs with your favorite chocolate or candy pieces.
