Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/2 cup butter, softened
  • 3/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 cup flour
  • 14 ounce sweetened condensed milk
  • 1/2 cup miniature chocolate chips
  • 1/2 pound blue candy melts
  • 1/2 pound yellow candy melts
  • 1/2 pound pink candy melts
  • 1/2 pound white candy melts
  • Easter sprinkles

Instructions

1. In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and brown sugar until light and fluffy. Stir in the vanilla extract and sweetened condensed milk. Gradually mix in the flour until the dough is well combined, then fold in the miniature chocolate chips.

2. Scoop the cookie dough and gently shape it into small egg-like forms. Place the shaped eggs on a parchment-lined baking sheet or tray.

3. Refrigerate the shaped COOKIE DOUGH EASTER EGGS for 1-2 hours, or until they are firm and hold their shape.

4. Melt each color of candy melts according to the package instructions, taking care to achieve a smooth, pourable consistency.

5. Dip the chilled COOKIE DOUGH EASTER EGGS into the melted candy coatings, allowing any excess to drip off. Immediately top with colorful Easter sprinkles while the coating is still wet.

6. Place the decorated COOKIE DOUGH EASTER EGGS on a parchment-lined surface and allow the candy coating to harden completely before serving.

Notes

Chilling the shaped COOKIE DOUGH EASTER EGGS is crucial to ensure they hold their form and don’t become misshapen when dipped in the candy melts. Be sure to refrigerate them for the full 1-2 hours for best results.

When melting the candy melts, take your time and stir them frequently to achieve a smooth, pourable consistency. Avoid overheating, as this can cause the melts to seize up and become unusable.

Get creative with your decorations! While the classic Easter sprinkles are a beautiful choice, you can also experiment with drizzling contrasting candy colors, adding edible glitter, or even piping designs on top of the coated COOKIE DOUGH EASTER EGGS.

Store the finished COOKIE DOUGH EASTER EGGS in an airtight container at room temperature. They will keep for up to 1 week, making them a great make-ahead Easter dessert option.
