This recipe, which has the same base list of ingredients as my S'more Chocolate Chippies, is a standard cookie recipe in my kitchen. Switch up the mix-ins for whatever you have on hand or whatever you are craving. It's similar to a Tollhouse chocolate chip cookie, but better.
Halloween Pudding Cookies
(30 cookies)
3/4 cup unsalted butter, room temperature
1/4 cup granulated sugar
3/4 cup light brown sugar, packed
1 3.4-ounce instant vanilla pudding mix
2 eggs
1 tsp vanilla extract
2 cups all purpose flour
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1 cup White Chocolate Candy Corn M&Ms
1 cup white chocolate chips
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Prepare baking sheets by lining them with parchment paper or a Silpat mat.
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter and two sugars until well combined. Beat in vanilla pudding mix. Add eggs, one at a time, until well incorporated. Mix in vanilla extract.
In another small bowl, mix together flour, baking soda, and salt. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just incorporated. Fold in M&Ms and white chocolate chips.
Drop tablespoon size cookie dough onto prepared cookie sheet. Bake for 10 minutes, or until just turning golden brown (be careful not to over bake). Cool on cookie sheet for 5 minutes before removing to wire rack to cool completely.

Oh what fun! Wish my kid liked M&M's. What weird-o kid doesn't like M&M's??? Mine! So, we are making basic chocolate chip cookies today.
ReplyDeleteWhat?! I wish I had the problem of not liking M&Ms. But luckily these cookies go well with just about anything you add to them. :)
DeleteSounds so good, Elaine! I voted you as Host favorite for Foodie Friends Friday!

Thanks Cindy! I love how these cookies turned out, so I'm sure you will too. I'll be sure to check out your page this Friday to see how you liked these cookies.
DeleteYummmm, I LOVE pudding cookies! I agree, I think they are even better than Tollhouse (which is not easy to do!). And these are so cute... maybe I'll make them for the tailgate this weekend!?
ReplyDeleteI thought of you when I was making these. :) I still like the S'mores Pudding Cookies the best, but these are a fun, festive cookie for Halloween. And obviously perfect for tailgating! (Wish I could be thereee!)
DeleteThese look great. I may have to try adding pudding to my cookies. Thanks for sharing on Foodie Friends Friday. Please come back Sunday to vote.
ReplyDeleteAdding pudding does wonders! It makes the cookies so soft and chewy. Definitely give it a try!
