Mini egg cookies

The ultimate Easter cookie. Chewy, vanillary and packed with crunchy chocolate mini eggs. These mini egg cookies are also gluten-free!

Ingredients

Method

  1. Mix the sugars with the melted butter in a large bowl.

  2. Add the egg and vanilla extract and continue to mix until fully combined.

  3. Mix in the gluten-free flour, xanthan gum, salt and bicarbonate of soda until combined.

  4. Add the crushed mini eggs and chocolate chips and give them a good mix in so they are dispersed evenly.

  5. Cover the bowl and place in the fridge for 45 minutes.

  6. Preheat the oven to 190C/170C Fan/Gas 5 and line a couple of baking trays with non-stick baking paper.

  7. Roll the chilled cookie dough into golf-size balls and place them onto the prepared trays, leaving space between them for spreading. (If your trays are small, you may need to cook them in batches.)

  8. Bake for 12–15 minutes until golden and flattened.

  9. Remove from the oven and leave to cool for a few minutes on the baking tray before transferring to a cooling rack.

Recipe Tips

You could use regular plain flour and omit the xanthan gum if you don’t need these to be gluten-free.

You can freeze the uncooked dough in balls and bake whenever you fancy a mini egg cookie!
