Cadbury Choc Chip Cookies

By Brittni • posted on 03/18/2026

You have to try these Cadbury choc chip cookies with your leftover Easter candy… Or make a special trip to the grocery store before Easter to pick some up just for this recipe because they’re that good.

Easter candy is probably my favorite holiday candy….the Cadbury mini eggs and Robins Eggs, specifically. And since we had a bag of mini eggs laying around already, I thought why not make some cookies.

These Cadbury choc chip cookies will have you running to the pantry to see if you have all the ingredients. Spoiler alert: you probably do! Just grab the candy from the grocery store to add in and you’re all set.

DIY Easter Basket from Scratch

By Brittni • posted on 03/12/2026

This DIY Easter basket is soft as can be, but sturdy enough to hold all the eggs from the Easter egg hunt.

When you were a kid, do you remember running around the backyard excitedly searching for Easter eggs on Easter morning? Maybe getting your fancy clothes dirty from rolling around in the grass afterwards, in celebration? Or waking up early and seeing a cute little Easter basket on the table with all of your favorite things inside?

As a kid, I remember thinking Easter was so fun. And as an adult, I’m determined to bring some of that childhood magic into my son’s life, for these holidays that have less meaning / excitement as an adult. So, a couple of years ago, I made Hayes a DIY Easter basket in his favorite color, in hopes that we could use it year after year for egg hunts and Easter morning surprises.

So far, so good! It took a little while to make, but it was very, VERY easy. And has held up really well, so I thought I would share the tutorial ahead of Easter this year, in case you want to make your own. No sewing required!
