Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes.
Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, salt, and instant pudding mix.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
Fold in the chocolate chips using a spatula or wooden spoon.
Drop rounded spoonfuls of dough (about 1 tablespoon each) 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 lightly golden. The centers will still look slightly underbaked.
Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
