Mini Egg Cookie Bars

Hello everyone! I think it’s time for another mini egg recipe what do you think? I’m sorry, I’m obsessed with them! Its also been awhile since I’ve done a cookie bar recipe and these are just the perfect match! Crispy and gooey cookie bars packed with mini eggs, Heaven! These are the perfect easter recipe.

You need to use an 8×8 square tin for this recipe. If you are using a much bigger baking tray you will want to make a bigger batch of the recipe. Just multiply the ingredients. Or instead you can reduce your cooking time. They key to these cookie bars is to have them slightly gooey. It makes them so delicious.

This is a very simple recipe. I love cookie bars because you make your dough and bake straight away no waiting time or chilling beforehand.
