Mini Egg Cookie Bars
Easy and delicous, cookie bars that are chewy, soft, crisp and packed with mini eggs.
Equipment
- 9x9 inch square baking pan
Ingredients
- 255 g butter 1 cup
- 200 g light brown sugar (packed) 1 cup
- 112 g caster sugar 1/2 cup
- 2 eggs
- 1 tsp vanilla paste (you can use vanilla extract if you'd like)
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 350 g plain flour 1 3/4 cup
- 30 g cornflour 1/4 cup
- 100 g chocolate chips 1 packet or 3/4 cup
- 1 - 2 bags mini eggs
Instructions
- Start by creaming together the butter, sugar and vanilla until pale and fluffy
- Next, add in the eggs and mix everything together
- Now, add in the dry ingredients and combine till you get a dry crumbly dough
- Next, pour in the milk and mix well till your dough is thick but no longer crumbly
- Mix in chocolate chips and crushed mini eggs
- Finally, place the dough into a lined baking tray and top with any extra mini eggs or chocolate chips
- Place in a preheated 180 degree / gas mark 4 / 355° fahrenheit oven for around 22 - 28 minutes until golden brown and firm on the edges and the top looks dry
- Once fully cooked allow the bars to cool for about 15 - 20 minutes in the tray before transferring to a wire rack
- Once fully cooled, cut the cookie bars in as many squares as you like (I normally go for 16) and serve. Optional: place more mini eggs on top as they will sink slightly as they bake.
