- Scoop dough onto baking sheet lined with parchment paper, about 1 inch balls placed 2 inches apart.
- Slightly flatten cookies and top with remaining crushed Cadbury eggs.
- Bake for about 10 minutes or until edges start to become golden brown.
- Take out and let sit 5 minutes. Cookies will still bake on the pan.
- Transfer to cooling rack after 5 minutes to prevent more baking.
