Think about it…pudding is soft, it has a yummy flavor already added, and is perfectly sweet. Which makes it the obvious addition to cookies! You literally just make a cookie recipe as you would otherwise, but also add the pudding mix (instant only please) and wait for the magic to happen. What you are left with is a soft, melty textured cookie that is thick and perfectly sweetened. Have I convinced you yet to give them a try?

Why Add Pudding Into Cookies?
Pudding mix has starches in it, which helps in stabilizing the dough, creating a thicker cookie. It also has sweeteners and flavors which are an easy short-cut when trying to get the most flavor into a cookie! Plus, pudding comes in many flavors, and it’s easier than buying a lot of extracts!
Does It Have To Be Instant Pudding?
