Instructions
- 1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
- 2. In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
- 3. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then add vanilla extract; mix until combined.
- 4. In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt.
- 5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing just until incorporated.
- 6. Fold in the chocolate chips.
- 7. Scoop about 2 tablespoons of dough and flatten into a disk. Place a chilled Cadbury Creme Egg in the center, then wrap the dough around the egg, sealing it completely. Repeat with remaining dough and eggs.
- 8. Place stuffed dough balls onto prepared baking sheets, spacing them 2 inches apart.
- 9. Bake for 12-14 minutes, or until cookies are golden brown around the edges but still slightly soft in the center.
- 10. Allow cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Zusatztipps für die Zubereitung
Chilling the Cadbury Creme Eggs before stuffing helps them maintain their shape during the baking process, preventing excessive melting. Wrapping the dough tightly around each egg ensures the gooey center stays sealed within the cookie as it bakes.
Varianten und Anpassungen
For a different chocolate flavor, try swapping semisweet chocolate chips for milk or dark chocolate chips. Alternatively, use caramel-filled Cadbury Eggs to add a delightful caramel surprise inside the cookie.
Serviervorschläge
