Hi, there is a lot of good information about creating a trigger framework, take a look at the following link, there are some opensource tools to help as well:

Create a class file called - like helperEasyOpp - put code in it like this...
  
public class HandlerEasyOpp{

  public void updateClosedDate(list<Easy_Opportunity__c> triggeredEasyOpps) {
    for(easy_opportunity__c easyOpp :triggeredEasyOpps) {
      if(easyOpp.Stage__c == 'Closed Won' || easyOpp.Stage__c == 'Closed Lost') {
        easyOpp.Close_Date__c = system.today();
      }
    }
  }

}

Change your trigger to look like this... 
trigger oppCloseDate on Easy_Opportunity__c (before update) {

  HandlerEasyOpp.updateClosedDate(trigger.new);

}

the triggered records will be passed to the helper class, and as it updates the list that came in - the changes will be committed at the close of the trigger.

ive truied to follow and come up with this class,  but i can't save as there is error - unexpected token 'override': 
public class oppclosedate extends triggerhandler{

  public  oppclosedate() {}
  
    protected void override beforeUpdate() {
    oppclosedate();
    }
    private void oppclosedate(List){
        for (easy_opportunity__c opp : (List<easy_opportunity__c>) trigger.new)
    
    
    if (opp.Stage__c == 'Closed Won' || opp.Stage__c == 'Closed Lost')
        {
          opp.Close_Date__c= system.today();
         }
        
    }
    
    
}
