Ty started talking about eating pudding cookies today, and I figured there was some kind of recipe to help us with that. I'm not sure how he came up with the idea except that I let him have a pudding cup for a snack yesterday. He even went to grab a pudding cup when we were gathering the ingredients, but this recipe uses the dry mix.
We usually bake on Mondays, but our plans to spend time with Grandma Smits, Aunt Lori, Henry, and Evelyn fell through with Brielle being sick. I found the recipe Pudding Chocolate Chip Cookies on food.com. The only thing we changed was that we used mini-chocolate chips rather than regular because that's all we had. They smelled delicious even as we mixed them together! The kids think they're great, but the cookies are chocolate...what's not to love?
- 1 cup butter
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 3/4 cup brown sugar
- 1 tsp. vanilla
- 1 pkg. (3 oz.) vanilla or chocolate pudding (we used chocolate) -- comments on food.com suggested using other pudding flavors like butterscotch and even banana!
- 2 eggs
- 1 tsp. baking soda
- 2 1/4 cups flour
- 1-2 cups of chocolate chips
- 1 cup nuts (optional -- we didn't add them in)
- Mix the flour and baking soda and set aside.
- Combine butter, sugars, vanilla, and pudding in a large mixing bowl and beat until smooth and creamy.
- Beat in eggs.
- Gradually add the flour mixture.
- Drop by rounded teaspoonfuls on an ungreased baking sheet.
- Bake at 375 degrees for 8-10 minutes.
- Enjoy!
