Easter Mini Egg Cookies
These Easter Mini Egg Cookies are easy to make and so cute! With just a few ingredients, you can turn some store bought sugar cookie dough into these seasonal treats.
Ingredients
- 1 Betty Crocker™ Sugar Cookie Mix or premade chilled dough
- 1 Egg
- 1/2 Cup Softened Butter
- 1/2 Cup Mini Eggs
- 1/4 Cup Melted Chocolate optional
Instructions
If using sugar cookie mix, follow the recipe as per the package. For this recipe, I used Betty Crocker™ Sugar Cookie Mix which calls for:
- Preheat your oven to 350F and prepare a baking tray with parchment lined paper.
- In a large bowl, add in your sugar cookie mix, egg, butter and combine together until a ball of dough forms.
- Portion out each cookie dough into similar size balls using a cookie scooper or just with your hands, place each cookie on parchment paper about 1 1/2 - 2 inches apart.
- Use a spoon or cookie scooper to create a dent in the middle then place in the oven to bake for 10-12 minutes or until the cookies have golden edges/bottom.
- Once cookies are done, use spoon/cookie scooper again to press a dent in the middle and let cool. Add your mini eggs on top either just by itself or place with melted chocolate first to hold.
- Serve with a glass of milk and enjoy!
