# Ingredients:

→ For topping

09 - Mini candy eggs or chocolate eggs

10 - Melted dark or white chocolate

11 - Royal icing or powdered sugar mixed with water

12 - Edible beads, colorful sprinkles (optional)

# Instructions:

01 - Mix together butter and sugar until it’s nice and creamy. Add the egg and vanilla, then mix again. Toss in the flour, cocoa, baking powder, and salt, and stir till you’ve got smooth dough. Shape it into a ball, cover it, and chill for 15 minutes.

02 - Set your oven to 350°F (180°C) to preheat. Roll out the dough on a floured surface to about 5mm thick. Use cookie cutters in shapes like eggs, bunnies, or flowers to cut out biscuits. Lay them on a baking tray lined with parchment paper. Bake for 10-12 minutes until the edges feel lightly firm, then let them cool completely.

# Notes:

01 - Cocoa powder: Gives a deep, rich chocolate taste.

02 - Mini Easter eggs: Add pops of color and a festive vibe.

03 - Softened butter: Keeps the cookies perfectly crumbly.

04 - Vanilla extract: Enhances the overall flavor.
