These cookies are the epitome of indulgence, delivering a perfect balance of chewiness, softness, and that classic chocolate chip goodness. What sets them apart is the secret ingredient: pudding mix.

Servings 40 cookies
Ingredients
- 2½ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 (3.4oz) box instant vanilla pudding mix
- 1 cup butter softened
- 3/4 cup brown sugar
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1½ cups chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 °F and line two cookie sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats. Set aside for later.
- Combine the flour, baking soda, and vanilla pudding in a medium bowl or measuring cup. Gently stir to combine. Set aside for later.
- Place the butter and both sugars into the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, or a mixing bowl with a hand mixer. Beat at medium speed for 1-2 minutes, or until the butter and sugar have combined and are light and fluffy.
- Scrape the sides of the bowl and add the eggs and vanilla extract. Mix an additional 30 seconds or until combined.
- Add the dry ingredients into the mixing bowl. Stir at low speed until combined. Scrape the sides of the bowl and fold in the chocolate chips.

- Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, or until lightly golden. Allow the cookies to cool on the baking tray then transfer to an airtight container for optimal freshness.
