Have you ever had one of those days where your cravings hit an all-time high and you just need a chocolate chip cookie like, yesterday? Well, I have, more often than I’d like to admit! These Chocolate Chip Pudding Cookies are my secret weapon when I need a soul-soothing treat that combines the classic comfort of a chocolate chip cookie with the soft, rich texture that only pudding can impart. This delightful twist on a traditional favorite comes from adding instant vanilla pudding mix to the dough – a genius move that took the baking world by storm a few years back. It’s the perfect solution for when you want your cookies to stand out, whether it’s for a cozy family gathering, an office potluck, or when you’re just in the mood to bake something special for yourself on a quiet weekend.
When it comes to serving these pudding cookies, they pretty much steal the show all on their own. If you’re enjoying them as a sweet midday snack, why not pair them with a cup of your favorite coffee or a tall glass of cold milk? They’re also a splendid dessert following a casual dinner – think spaghetti and meatballs or a classic grilled cheese. If you’re feeling extra indulgent, try sandwiching a scoop of vanilla ice cream between two cookies for an impromptu ice cream sandwich that will surely put a smile on anyone’s face.
