These Mini Eggs Cookie Bars are just like Mini Egg Cookies but they look much more sophisticated, have a uniform shape and look great in Easter treat bags, as part of a buffet spread or on the table at a school bake sale. This Mini Eggs tray bake is easy to slice and can make as many portions as you like – although our 8×8 square tin makes 16 good size square Mini Egg bars.
