Easter Cookie Nests

Easter is almost upon us, so me and my son decided to bake some easter treats....and as requested by him we made some cookies but with an easter twist :) here's the first recipe, nice and easy to make with little ones and very tasty :)

Easter Cookie Nests

1 batch of Cookie Dough (my chocolate chip cookie recipe)
Mixed Mini Eggs

Pre heat the oven to 180/170c

Make up the batch of cookie dough but leave out the chocolate chips
Line a baking sheet with baking paper.
Put spoonfuls of the cookie dough onto the baking sheet but don't flatten them as you need them to be thicker than normal.
In the centre of the cookie, push in a few of the mini eggs

Place them into the pre heated oven for around 10-12 minutes.

Leave to cool and enjoy :)

Easter Rocky Road

I have a confession to make....I've never eaten rocky road...I know I know, how can this of happened, but after all these years I've never managed to try this sweet overloaded chocolate treat hahaha :) so I decided to make my own and make it perfect for Easter :)

White Chocolate and Mini Egg Rocky Road

400g white chocolate
4 cookies (I used some left over funfetti cookies)
Bag of mini eggs
80g-100g marshmallows

Break up your cookies and mini eggs, leaving a few whole and cut your marshmallows into smaller pieces.

Melt the white chocolate either in a bowl over simmering water or in the microwave

Pour the broken up cookies, marshmallows and mini eggs into the melted chocolate and mix in gently to avoid breaking up the cookies too much.

Pour into a lined tray, place the whole mini eggs on top and pop into the fridge to harden :))
