# Expert Suggestions:

01 -
  • The creamy Cadbury egg centers create little pockets of gooey chocolate that regular chocolate chips just cant match
  • These are the cookies that disappear first at every gathering, and people actually ask for the recipe
02 -
  • Underbaking these slightly is the secret to their soft chewy texture, so pull them out when the centers still look a little underdone
  • The candy pieces melt and create gooey pockets, so let these cool completely before storing or they will stick together
03 -
  • Chop your Cadbury eggs while they're still cold from the fridge to prevent the chocolate from melting everywhere
  • Use a kitchen scale to weigh your flour for consistently perfect results every time
