Cadbury Egg Cookies from "Cooking with Karli"

 

These cookies are the bomb! Crunchy crust, and soft in the middle.  I only buy the British Cadbury eggs they taste so much better than the U.S. ones!  I just made these today and my husband blamed me that he ate 6 of them out of the oven!  This recipe is such a keeper! 

1 c. Cadbury eggs (crushed)-  I used a meat mallet,  but can use a rolling pin, I like to use the British Cadbury eggs

1 c. mini chocolate chips

1 c. butter (I didn't soften mine)

1 c. brown sugar

1/2 c. sugar

1 egg

1 tsp. vanilla

2 c. flour

1/2 c. old fashioned rolled oats (I used quick oats)

1 tsp. baking soda

1/2 tsp. salt

** Cram butters and sugars together until smooth and fluffy (takes a few minutes)

**Add egg and vanilla

**Add flour and dry ingredients slowly -- Once the flour mixtures is about 1/2 way incorporated, add Cadbury eggs and chocolate chips, mix.  STOP as soon as flour is completely incorporated, avoid over mixing.

** Bake at 350 F. for 11 to 13 min. for medium sized cookies

** Makes about 3 dozen.
