# Expert Tips:

01 -
  • The candy eggs create pockets of creamy milk chocolate that stay slightly soft even after baking
  • These cookies strike that perfect balance between crisp edges and chewy centers
02 -
  • Pressing extra candy pieces into the tops before baking creates that gorgeous spotted bakery look
  • These cookies actually taste better on day two, if you can manage to hide them that long
03 -
  • Chop the Cadbury eggs into different sizes, from tiny pieces to bigger chunks, so every bite is a surprise
  • Sprinkle a little flaky sea salt on top right after baking for that sweet-salty magic
