If you saw my 'basic cookie' post (3rd March 2014) you'll know that I felt inspired to try out new flavour combinations. I asked for suggestions from my Facebook friends, and Creme Egg cookies were the brainchild of my good friend Sonia.
So, Evan and I had a play last week while Megan was napping (hooray, she's having a couple of hours in the afternoon again!) We simply cut mini Creme Eggs in half, and pressed them in to the middle of each cookie before baking. I thought they'd melt a bit more than they did, but they stayed pretty solid in the middle of the cookies. If I was to try these again, I'd either break up the eggs or melt them, before mixing in to the cookie dough, so that the flavour mingles a bit more. If you fancy having a go, we bought 2 bags of eggs and they were enough for 1 batch of Rachel's cookie dough, with a few left over to munch!
Not the prettiest cookies you've ever seen, but they made a tasty and different Easter treat and as you can see, Evan was very proud of his creation. We'll try and make them again, while Creme Eggs are still in the shops. Maybe we'll get some on Co-op's bargain shelf ;-)
