Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 0.75 cup granulated sugar
- 0.75 cup light brown sugar, packed
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 pieces large eggs
- 1 package instant vanilla pudding mix (3.4 oz package)
- 2.25 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
In a large mixing bowl, use a hand or stand mixer to cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the vanilla extract and eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition.
Sprinkle in the instant vanilla pudding mix and beat until fully incorporated.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined. Do not overmix.
Fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips using a spatula or wooden spoon, ensuring they are evenly distributed in the dough.
Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop rounded spoonfuls of 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 lightly golden. The centers may look slightly underbaked, but they will set as they cool.
Remove the cookies from the oven and let them rest on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve and enjoy your soft and chewy Pudding Chocolate Chip Cookies with a glass of milk or your favorite beverage!
