If you’re in the mood for a soft chocolate chip cookie, then behold… it just doesn’t get any better than this one! While we opted to throw together this batch of vanilla pudding chocolate chip cookies, you can easily swap out the vanilla pudding for other easy flavors.
Here are a few options we’ve tried that we enjoyed:
- Banana Nut Chocolate Chip- instead of vanilla pudding use banana pudding, add 1/2 cup of chopped nuts for a
- Double Chocolate Chip Cookies- instead of vanilla use a chocolate pudding
- Pistachio Nut Cookies- use a pistachio pudding mix, use white chocolate chips instead of chocolate, add 1/2 c. chopped pistachios
- Macadamia Nut Cookies- use white chocolate chips instead of semi-sweet chocolate, add 1/2 c. chopped macadamia nuts
- Butterscotch Chocolate Chip Cookies- use butterscotch pudding mix in place of the vanilla pudding mix
These cookies are very soft and chewy with lots of flavor.
