Soft Chocolate Chip Cookies
What makes these chocolate chip cookies so soft is the pudding mix inside. What make them taste so good is, it’s a chocolate chip cookie with pudding inside! These cookies will quickly become a family favorite. I have been making these cookies for 15 years and everyone still asks for them. I thought they would be tired of them by now, but they’re not. Even people who are not chocolate chip cookie fans like these (I’m talking about you mom). These cookies are easy to throw together and yield about 10 dozen small cookies or less depending on the size of the cookies you make. I like to use a large cookie sheet and bake 30 cookies at a time, that way they’re done in 4 rounds. That makes the perfect amount cookies to take to a party or gathering of any kind. Make sure you use homemade vanilla extract to make them taste even better! Enjoy life chocolate chips I use.

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a large bowl, or stand-mixer, add the butter, eggs, both brown sugar and cane sugar, pudding mix, and vanilla. Beat on medium speed until creamy and combined.
- Gradually add in the flour and baking soda to the mixture. Beating on low speed until just combined. Stir in the chocolate chips.
- Roll about a tbsp of dough into a ball and place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for only 8 to 10 minutes. Do not over bake. The cookies will seem doughy, but that's because of the pudding mix.
- Remove cookies from oven and slide the cookies off the baking sheet, parchment paper and all, to avoid overbaking. Have another parchment paper ready with dough on it to slide on the hot baking sheet to continue baking the rest of the cookies.
- Let the cookies completely cool before storing in an airtight container.
