Servings 18 cookies

Ingredients
  

  • 175 g plain flour
  • ¼ tsp bicarbonate of soda
  • 125 g unsalted butter, softened
  • 50 g caster sugar
  • 50 g light muscovado sugar
  • ½ tsp vanilla essence
  • 1 egg
  • 75 g mini eggs, roughly crushed

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 190°c / gas 5. Grease 2 baking trays and set aside.
  • Put all the ingredients in a large bowl, except the chocolate and mix with an electric whisk until all combined.
  • Add the chocolate pieces and with a wooden spoon mix together. See Top Tip
  • Divide the mixture into 18 balls, and place onto the baking trays, flatten them a little ensuring they are spaced apart as the mixture will spread.
  • Bake for 8-10mins until lightly colour and just firm.
  • Leave to cool on the trays for a few mins and then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
  • Store in an airtight container.

TOP TIP:

  • If you find the mixture is just turning to breadcrumbs when you're whisking, tip the mini eggs into the mixture and knead together with your hands.
