A whole Cadbury Creme Egg is enveloped in a soft, chocolatey cookie, creating a gooey, molten center that’s sure to wow everyone. Perfect for springtime gatherings or as a festive indulgence, these cookies are a delightful treat for all ages.

Ingredients

  • 10 full-size milk chocolate creme eggs (such as Cadbury)
  • 1 (18.75-ounce) package fudge brownie mix (including chocolate syrup packet)
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted and cooled
  • 1 large egg, beaten
  • 1 teaspoon instant espresso powder (optional)
  • 1 cup chocolate chips (dark, milk, or white)

Instructions

  • Freeze the Creme Eggs: Place the unwrapped creme eggs in the freezer for at least 2 hours, or up to 12 hours.
  • Prepare for Baking: Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C), positioning the rack in the top third. Line two large baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • Make the Cookie Dough: In a large bowl, combine the brownie mix, chocolate syrup, flour, melted butter, beaten egg, and espresso powder (if using). Stir until the mixture forms a thick dough. Fold in the chocolate chips.
  • Assemble the Cookies: Divide the dough into 10 equal portions. Flatten each portion and place a frozen creme egg in the center. Enclose the egg completely in dough and place on the baking sheets with 2 inches of space between each cookie.
  • Bake: Bake one sheet at a time for 10-11 minutes, until the edges are set. Avoid overbaking to preserve the molten center.
  • Cool and Serve: Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 15 minutes. Serve warm for a gooey center, or allow them to cool completely.

Notes

  • Mini Creme Eggs: Use mini Cadbury Creme Eggs and adjust dough portions for bite-sized cookies.
  • Flavor Twists: Experiment with flavored creme eggs or add mix-ins like nuts, toffee bits, or white chocolate chunks.
  • Storage: Store cooled cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days. Reheat in the microwave for a warm center.
