Cadbury Mini Egg Cookies

1/2 C butter flavored Crisco
1/2 C Butter
1 C brown sugar
1 C white sugar
2 Eggs
1 1/2 t vanilla
1 t baking powder
1 t baking soda
1/2 t salt
2 1/2 C flour
6T unsweetened cocoa powder
1 10 oz bag Cadbury Mini-Eggs

Preheat oven to 350. You'll need to chop up those Cadbury Eggs. Chop up Cadbury Eggs - just put them in a ziplock bag and bang on them with a marble rolling pin until they look like they have been quartered, but not too small. A hammer would work too.

Cream together the butter, crisco, brown sugar and white sugar. Add in eggs one at at a time and the vanilla. In a separate bowl whisk together the flour, soda, baking powder, salt, and cocoa powder. Add to the butter mixture to combine and then mix in the candies.

Drop onto a cookie sheet and cook for about 8-10 minutes. They're soft and fudgy in the middle and a little crisp on the edges with crunchy little candy bits throughout.

*I am SOOOOOO SUPER UPSET because I missed the window for the mini eggs this year and got through the season with only getting 2 BAGS!!!! It really is just unheard of. I went to 11 stores in the past 2 days looking for these gems. So I found this recipe, but don't have the goods to produce it! I just want it on my blog so I can always have it to make for next time...so sad. If you are one of the few who has a million bags stashed away for a rainy day, you MUST try these!
