Easter Mini Egg Cookies
These Easter Mini Egg Cookies are soft, chewy, and loaded with Cadbury Mini Eggs—making them the ultimate Easter treat. Whether you’re whipping up a batch for an Easter brunch, gifting them to friends, or simply indulging in some seasonal sweetness, these cookies are as adorable as they are delicious!

Spring is in the air, and that means one thing: it’s time for Easter baking!
Welcome back, baking besties! For those of you who don’t know me, I’m Lisa, and I’m all about baking up adorable easy-to-make treats. I’m excited to share with you my rendition of Easter Mini Egg Cookies.
What I love most about these cookies is that their texture is pure perfection. You have the softness and chewiness of a classic chocolate chip cookie, but the crunch from Cadbury Mini Eggs. It’s a combination that you won’t be able to get enough of!

If you’ve been keeping up with me on socials like Instagram and TikTok, you’ll know that I’ve already gotten into the Easter mood! In fact, I recently shared my favourite Easter recipe of all-time: No-Bake Easter Egg Nest Cookies!

Don’t Worry About the Brand
I know I mention Cadbury Mini Eggs, but there are a lot of other brands that have similar candy covered chocolate eggs – you can use any one of those, too!
Be Sure to Chill the Dough
For extra thick and chewy cookies, refrigerate the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking.

Don’t Bake the Cookies With The Mini Eggs!
You’ll only want to bake the cookies with the mini egg topping for about 2 minutes. This will ensure that the Mini Eggs keep their shape/integrity. You’ll find more details in the recipe below!

How to Store & Freeze
If you have any leftovers, I suggest storing them this way:
- Room Temperature – Store in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
- Freezing the Dough – Scoop the dough onto a baking sheet, freeze, then transfer to a freezer-safe bag. Bake straight from frozen!
- Freezing Baked Cookies – Cool completely and store in a freezer-safe container for up to 2 months.
How to Make Easter Mini Egg Cookies
- 1/4 cup butter, melted
- 1/3 cup brown sugar
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 egg
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 tsp baking soda
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1 cup caramel chips

Begin by mixing together melted butter and both sugars. Once well combined, add egg and mix.
In a separate bowl, sift together flour, baking soda and salt. Slowly add to your wet ingredients and fold until a cookie dough comes to form.
Fold in caramel chips and chocolate chips. Chill in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes.

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and preheat your oven to 350 degrees F.
Using a cookie scoop, space out 12 mounds of cookie dough on your lined sheet, about 2 inches apart.
Bake for 7 minutes, remove from oven and add 3-4 Cadbury Mini Eggs on top of each cookie. Place back in the oven and bake for an additional 2 minutes.

Allow to cool on a cookie rack.
