So in my latest quest to find the perfect cookie recipe, I decided to make these Vanilla Pudding Cookies for a Christmas party I was attending.
From what I can tell, everybody loved them because they were all gone before the party was over!
I believe this is the first time I have ever used a pudding mix in a cookie recipe. The results were pretty good! I will have to experiment more often using pudding mixes in my cookies.
I used mini chocolate chips for this recipe, but you can easily substitute for whatever you have hanging around like butterscotch chips. Butterscotch pudding and butterscotch chips. Now there's an idea!

These pudding cookies are delicious. Not only are they easy to make but are very moist, even after a few days they are still moist. A keeper for sure.
