Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, instant pistachio pudding mix, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar using a hand or stand mixer on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes.
Add the eggs one at a time to the butter mixture, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the milk, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix just until combined; avoid overmixing.
Fold in the chopped pistachios and mini chocolate chips (if using) with a rubber spatula until evenly distributed.
Using a tablespoon or cookie scoop, drop dollops of the cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are set and lightly golden. The centers may look slightly underbaked, but they will set as they cool.
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve and enjoy these Pistachio Pudding Pancake Cookies with a glass of milk or a cup of tea!
