Mini Egg Cookie Bars are soft and chewy cookie bars filled to the brim with chocolate chips and Mini Easter Eggs.
I am aware that it's only February and Easter is still a way off.
However, the stores already have Easter goodies available and honestly, I love Ester eggs all the time.
So here we are.
You could choose to make these cookie bars today, tomorrow, next week or stick to making them at Easter. I personally will make them a few times this year.
How to Make Mini Egg Cookie Bars
The mini eggs I used are Cadbury's speckled mini eggs. You can use any other brand if you like or mix it up and use different flavoured mini eggs. I just really like the look of speckled eggs in these cookie bars.

Hi there, is it really 2 TABLESPOONS of salt? (1/8 cup)?
That sounds excessive to me.
Many thanks.
