Sweet Cadbury Egg Cookies (Print Version)

# Ingredients:

→ Wet Ingredients

01 - 1 cup salted butter
02 - 1 cup packed brown sugar
03 - 1/2 cup white sugar
04 - 1 egg
05 - 1 teaspoon vanilla essence
06 - 1 teaspoon almond essence

→ Dry Ingredients

07 - 2 cups all-purpose flour
08 - 1/2 cup quick-cooking oats
09 - 1 teaspoon baking soda
10 - 1/2 teaspoon salt

→ Mix-Ins

11 - 2 bags (9 oz each) of Cadbury mini eggs
12 - 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips
13 - 1/2 cup regular semi-sweet chocolate chips

# Instructions:

01 - In a large mixing bowl, cream together the salted butter, brown sugar, and white sugar until light and fluffy. Mix in the egg, vanilla essence, and almond essence until well combined.
02 - In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, quick-cooking oats, baking soda, and salt.
03 - Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Fold in the Cadbury mini eggs, mini chocolate chips, and semi-sweet chocolate chips.
04 - Roll the dough into balls and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Leave adequate space between each ball to allow spreading during baking.
05 - Preheat the oven to 175°C (350°F). Bake the cookies for 13-15 minutes or until the edges are golden brown. Let them cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

# Notes:

01 - For best results, ensure that the cookies are completely cool before storing in an airtight container to retain their chewiness.
02 - To freeze the dough, roll it into balls, freeze until solid, and store in a freezer bag for up to 3 months. Bake directly from frozen with an additional 1-2 minutes of baking time.
03 - Freeze baked cookies layered with parchment paper in a freezer-safe container for up to 2 months. Allow to thaw at room temperature for about an hour before serving.
