Repeat until you’ve finished all the cookies. All the chocolate to set before serving or storing in a airtight container.
Now pair addictive Cadbury Eggs with an amazing cookie and you’ve got magic happening.
Who wouldn’t love a sugar cookie filled with a pool of chocolate and a delicious Cadbury Egg floating in the center.
