If you love those delightful candy coated smooth chocolate eggs, then this is going to be the best cookie you’ve ever eaten. Peanut Butter Dark Chocolate Cadbury Mini Egg Cookies are seriously the most perfect cookie ever!

I will never forget when I first tried these delectable Cadbury Mini Eggs…it was life changing. You laugh, but I’m serious.

This candy, oh how it taunts me once a year, “Joanna, I’ve arrived in the stores! Rush over to grab the whole shelf full of bags. I won’t be here forever.” Am I the only one that they talk to?

I didn’t really want to try the first bag, because I honestly thought they would be just egg shaped M&M’s. Who needs another hard candy coated drop of chocolate?

I mean, I love M&M’s, why do I need another brand of the same thing. But, no…the chocolate is different, the coating is different.

Everything about this candy is different. The coating is harder, the chocolate is smoother, and it’s just one utterly amazing bite after another. I didn’t think that they could improve on this candy….until…dark chocolate!!  

I knew that Easter candy as I knew it would be forever changed. We buy a bag every time we walk into Target. Do we still have some left in the pantry? Uh, yea! You can not run out of this stuff. It’s almost like crack. Almost.

I said to Kelsie the other day, “I want to make cookies with these, you know like chocolate chips, but with Cadbury Mini Eggs.” She said, “the only cookie that would work with the Cadbury Mini Eggs would be peanut butter.” My child is brilliant. Thick and chewy peanut butter cookies were made for these dark chocolate Cadbury Mini Eggs.

I made these cookies and knew that I had created a monster.

These cookies are best served warm, about 10 minutes out of the oven, when the chocolate is still gooey. But, they are still very tasty 3 days later.

They’ve of course lost their melty factor, but still quite delicious. They make the perfect afternoon snack with a cold glass of milk, if that’s your thing (it’s totally not mine). Or a hot cup of coffee (that’s my thing).

  • Making marshmallows at home isn’t hard, and you can control what the ingredients are. These VERY SIMPLE HOMEMADE MARSHMALLOWS are easy to make, and you can cut them into any shape you’d like! .
. https://www.everydaymadefresh.com/very-simple-homemade-marshmallows/ .
.
INGREDIENTS:
3 packages of unflavored gelatin
1 cup cold water I stash mine in the freezer for 5 minutes, divided
12 oz sugar by all means weigh this out
1 cup light agave nectar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 cup powdered sugar
1/4 cup cornstarch

INSTRUCTIONS:
1. In a large mixing bowl combine 1/2 cup cold water with the gelatin. Set aside, ready to use.
In a large pot with deep sides, combine the other 1/2 cup of cold water, sugar, and agave nectar.

2. Heat on medium to high heat, covered for 4 minutes.

3. Uncover, and attach a candy thermometer. Cook until the mixture reaches 240 degrees.
As soon as it reaches temp, remove from heat.

4. Turn on your stand mixer (low) and slowly pour your mixture into the gelatin mix until you pour all of your sugar mix.

5. Turn the speed up to high and continue beating until the mixture becomes very thick and no longer hot, but warm to the touch.

6. While the mix is beating prepare a 13X9 inch baking dish - line the baking dish with wax paper, overlapping the sides.

7. Combine the powdered sugar and corn starch, sprinkle the wax paper with half the mixture, reserving the rest for the top of your marshmallows.

8. Once your marshmallow mixture is warm to the touch, pour in your vanilla flavoring and whip a minute more to combine.

9. Turn off your mixer and pour your marshmallow mix into your prepared dish.

10. Sprinkle 1/4 of the remaining cornstarch/powdered sugar mix on top, and set the rest aside for later use.

11. Place your marshmallows into the fridge for at least 4 hours, but overnight is best. .

1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup butter

INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Brown the butter - You'll need to grab a heavy bottom skillet. Place it over medium heat. Add the butter (whatever the measurement calls for, from any recipe), and as it melts, continually stir it. Don't step away from the pan at all - the butter will burn quickly. As the butter starts to brown (a very light brown color), turn off the heat, and pour into a heat safe measuring cup to cool just a bit.

2. Whisk together the flour, baking soda and salt, set aside.

3. In a large bowl, add the brown butter, and both sugars. Mix until combined.

4. Mix in the egg and vanilla until combined.

5. Add the dry ingredients and mix, until well combined.

6. Cover and chill for 30 minutes.

7. Remove from the fridge, preheat the oven to 350 degrees.

8. Line baking sheets with parchment paper, and roll into 1 inch balls, pressing the tops into sprinkles. Place 3 inches apart on baking sheets, and bake for 12 minutes.

9. Allow to cool on baking sheet for 5 minutes. Remove and finish cooling on cooling racks. .
