Dry Ingredients

  • 2 cups flour
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 3.4 oz vanilla instant pudding

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup butter, softened
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Add-ins

  • 1 cup chocolate chips
  • 1 cup chopped pecans

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  • In a bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt.
  • In another large bowl, cream together the butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until smooth.
  • Add the eggs and vanilla extract and mix until well combined.
  • Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just incorporated.
  • Stir in the vanilla pudding mix, chocolate chips, and pecans.

Baking

  • Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  • Bake for 10-12 minutes until edges are lightly golden.
  • Allow to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

Serve warm or at room temperature. Great with milk or vanilla ice cream on top. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week or freeze for up to three months. Tips: Ensure butter is softened for smooth batter, use fresh ingredients for best flavor, and don’t overmix the dough.
