Mini Egg NYC Cookies!

g Unsalted Butter/Stork

g Light Brown Soft Sugar

75 g White Granulated Sugar

Large/Medium Egg

tsp Vanilla ((optional!))

300 g Plain Flour

+ 1/2 tsp Baking Powder

Soda

tsp Sea Salt

g Dairy milk ((chopped finely) (or chocolate chips))

200 g Mini Eggs ((chopped))

g Mini Eggs ((whole))

Add the unsalted butter, light brown soft sugar and white granulated sugar to a bowl and beat until creamy.

Add in the egg, and beat again. If using vanilla, add it in now.

Add in the plain flour, baking powder, bicarbonate of soda, and salt and beat until a cookie dough is formed.

Add in the chopped dairy milk and chopped mini eggs and mix in until they are distributed well in the cookie dough.

Weigh the cookies out into eight cookie dough balls - they&#039;re about 115g each.

Once they&#039;re rolled into balls, add the whole mini eggs into the cookie dough balls and put the cookie dough in the freezer for at least 30 minutes, or in the fridge for an hour or so!

Whilst the cookie dough is chilling, preheat your oven to 180C Fan, or 200C regular! If your oven runs hot, go for 160C-170c.

Take the cookies out of the freezer/fridge and put onto lined baking trays. I put four cookies per tray!

Bake the cookies in the oven for 12-14 minutes. I don&#039;t personally flatten the cookies, as they flatten enough during baking - however, if you like flat cookies, flatten them a bit before baking.

Once baked, leave them to cool on the tray for at least 30 minutes, as they will continue to bake whilst cooling!

ENJOY!

Mini egg cookie cups with chopped mini eggs, chocolate chips, and a whipped chocolate ganache topping... perfect for Easter! 

Mini Egg Cookie Cups

sugar

tsp vanilla extract

flour

tsp bicarbonate of soda

tsp salt

tbsp cornflour

g chocolate chips

eggs

chocolate

150 g double cream

Preheat the oven to 190ºc/170ºc fan and grab a 12 hole muffin tin. 

Grease and line with strips of parchment paper

Add the butter and sugar to a bowl and beat together

Add the vanilla and egg and mix again

Add the flour, bicarb, salt and cornflour and mix again

Add the chocolate chips and mini eggs 

Split between the 12 holes, I use a 5cm cookie scoop, and then press into each one.

You can make a hole in the middle as you press if you want to make more of a dip

Bake in the oven for 14-16 minutes, and then leave to cool in the tin

Once cooled, use the strips to help remove them from the tin

Add the dark chocolate and cream to a bowl and melt together

Leave to set to a peanut butter consistency and then whip on a high speed

Pipe into the middle of the cookie cups and then add mini eggs 

Tasty &amp; uber rich. But I had to use less bicarbonate of Soda because I could taste it in the finished cookies. It wasn't a tightly packed teaspoon either.

Can you fill with melted Nutella instead of using ganache please? X

Turned out lush. But could do with the nutritional details  for each recipe. So i can include it in my diet lol

These are great. Mine came out really well. 
I'm interested to know what the cornflour does to the mixture. I'm always trying to experiment with my.own bakes so it's good to know the effect ingredients have on the recipes. Thanks x

Delicious chocolate cupcakes, topped with chocolate buttercream and decorated with mini eggs – these Easy Chocolate Easter Cupcakes are quick and simple to make and require no special equipment or cake decoration skills!

Easy Chocolate Easter Cupcakes

225 g butter (or margarine) (softened (see Note 1))

225 g caster sugar

eggs (at room temperature)

225 g self-raising flour

cocoa powder

milk

100 g butter (or margarine) (softened (see Note 1))

cocoa powder (sieved (this is really important

Or any other decoration you like!

Pre heat your oven to 180C / 160C fan / gas mark 4 / 350F. Put 24 cupcake cases in the holes of a cupcake tin. (See Note 3.)

Beat the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy looking. (See Note 2.)

Add one egg and beat until combined. Repeat with the other eggs, adding them in one at a time.

Add in half the flour and fold it in gently.

Add in the cocoa powder and the remaining flour and fold in gently.

Stir in the milk to loosen the cake batter slightly.

Divide the mixture between the cupcake cases. (I find 1 heaped tablespoon of mixture per cupcake case is about right.)

Put the cupcakes in your preheated oven for 13 minutes. After 13 minutes, get them out and check for doneness by pressing the tops. If they make a little crunchy sound, pop them in for 2 more minutes. If they don’t make a sound when you press the top, they are done. Remove from the oven and leave to cool in the cupcake tray.

Making the cupcakes:

Don’t try to decorate the cupcakes until they are completely cold! (They take about 1 hour to cool.)

Put the softened butter and sieved icing sugar in a bowl and beat together until smooth. Add in the cocoa and beat again until evenly mixed in.

Using a regular table knife, smooth a little of the chocolate buttercream onto the top of each cupcake and top with 3 mini eggs.

Decorating the cupcakes:

Was the perfect recipe to use for the PTA bake sale.  

I never got to taste my tester cupcake - was gobbled up by my son!  He told me it was delicious!

A delicious chocolate traybake cake, decorated with chocolate buttercream, Cadbury’s Creme Eggs and Cadbury’s Mini Eggs! This Easter Chocolate Traybake Cake is quick and simple to make, and requires no special equipment. Perfect for any Easter-themed event, it makes a great dessert on Easter day itself, and it’s a brilliant recipe to make with kids in the runup to Easter too! (Alternatively you can make this cake after Easter as a way to use up all your leftover Easter chocolate.)

Easter Chocolate Traybake Cake

350 g butter ((or margarine), softened (see Note 1))

butter ((or margarine), softened (see Note 1))

Cadbury’s Mini Eggs (I used

Cadbury’s Creme Eggs (I used 5

Pre heat your oven to 180C / 160C fan / gas mark 4 / 350F. Grease and fully line a traybake pan (33 by 23cm / 13 by 9ins).

Stir in the cocoa powder.

Add in the remaining flour and fold in gently.

Tip the mixture into the lined traybake pan. Smooth over the surface with the back of your wooden spoon.

Put the cake tin in the oven and cook for 30-40 minutes. When it’s ready, the cake should be pulling away slightly at the sides. To be sure it’s done, push a skewer (or a teaspoon handle if you don’t have a skewer) into the centre of the cake. If it comes out clean, the cake is done. If it comes out covered in mixture, pop the cake back in the oven for a few more minutes and check again.

When the cake is cooked, remove it from the oven. Leave in its tin for 10 minutes, or until cool enough to handle, then turn out onto a cooling rack. (Use your grill rack, if you don’t have a cooling rack.)

Leave the cake to completely cool before decorating. (Approximately 1 hour after you have removed it from the tin.)

Making the cake

Make up the buttercream by mixing the softened butter, sieved icing sugar and sieved cocoa together – you can do this by hand or with an electric beater. I always do it by hand – it’s not very much effort if you are only doing a small quantity. (PLEASE NOTE: the butter must be softened first or it will be almost impossible to mix! Add a drop or two of water if you still find it hard to mix.)

If the cake has domed in the centre, trim it down so it is more-or-less flat. (Yes I know that means you lose a bit of cake, but… cook’s perks, right?)

Spread the buttercream all over the flat cake top, using a knife.

Finally, decorate the cake with mini eggs and/or creme eggs and/or whatever else you fancy!
