Pudding Cookies

Last Sunday, I gave these pudding chocolate chip cookies a whirl.

Sunday Baker
I started by mixing up the dough.


And baked as directed.


Easy as that!


The Verdict:  I thought these cookies were delicious! They were some what drier then your normal chocolate chip cookie. They tasted a bit more like a scone but I really liked that. Also, they come out much puffier then your typical chocolate chip cookie. Their size and shape kind of reminded me of the puffy sugar cookies I made around Christmas time. For anyone having trouble making Oreo stuffed chocolate chip cookies, this might be the perfect dough to use – it won’t pancake out.


Things to Note/Consider: The original recipe called for 4 cups of chocolate chips (or whatever add in you wanted to use). I cut it down to 2 cups and I think it was perfect. I can’t imagine how I would have been able to incorporate another 2 cups of chocolate chips into the dough. Also, this recipe made a million cookies! The picture above is barely a quarter of the cookies it produced. I was bringing cookies into work for days – but I didn't hear any of my coworkers complaining.

4 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking soda
1-1/2 cups butter (3 sticks) softened
1-1/2 cups brown sugar, packed
1/2 cup white sugar
2 (3.4 oz.) pkgs. instant vanilla pudding
4 eggs, room temp
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 cups chocolate chips

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Stir together flour and baking soda and set aside.
  • In a large separate bowl, cream butter, brown and white sugar.
  • Beat in pudding mix until well blended.
  • Stir in the eggs and vanilla. When smooth, slowly add in the flour mixture. This can take a little while, but make sure it's well incorporated into mix.
  • Add in chocolate chips.
  • Roll the dough into balls and bake 8-12 minutes
