Instructions
Preheat the oven to 180°C and line 2 cookie trays with baking paper

Add the chocolate chips and stir through
In another mixing bowl, whisk the 2 sugars and the melted butter for about 2 minutes
Now whisk in the egg and vanilla
Fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, until just combined
Use a large ice cream scoop to scoop out 10 cookies and place onto the 2 trays
Unwrap the Easter eggs, then roll a cookie ball, make an indent in the dough and place an Easter egg into the indent. Roll again to enclose the Easter egg. Repeat with the other dough balls.
Bake 1 tray at a time, for 8-10 minutes (the cookies will still be a little fudgy). Remove from the oven, give the cookies a minute or 2 to set, then place on a cake rack to cool completely
Notes
Any mini filled Easter egg can be used in these cookies -caramello, peppermint, Turkish delight just to name a few.
