Chocolate Chip Pudding Cookies

March 21, 2012 by Kimberly Danger 34 Comments

chocolate chip pudding cookies
The pudding in the batter makes for a moist, soft chocolate chip cookie – even after a few days!  What’s fun about this recipe is that you can experiment with different flavors of pudding (check out our Oreo Pudding Cookies) and different mix-ins (besides the chocolate chips).  Butterscotch pudding cookies taste great with pecans or walnuts.  Or, try chocolate pudding for a really rich taste.  Pin It!

Chocolate Chip Pudding Cookies

2 1/4 C. all-purpose flour
1 tsp. baking soda
1 C. margarine or butter, softened
3/4 C. brown sugar
1/4 C. white sugar
1 3.4-oz. package instant vanilla pudding
1 tsp. vanilla extract
2 eggs, room temperature
2 C. chocolate chips

In mixing bowl, cream together sugars, butter, vanilla extract, and vanilla pudding mix. Beat until creamy. Add eggs. Add dry ingredients and stir until well-combined. Fold in chocolate chips. Bake at 375 degrees for 8-10 minutes.

Note:  I started with this recipe on Allrecipes.com but switched up the pudding flavors and left out the walnuts.

    Sounds great! Are you suppose to mix up the pudding with the milk and then add it to the cookie mixture? Or just add the pudding powder?

      Just use the powder.

    Amazing! I did try the cheesecake pudding and used a cup of butterrscotch chips and a cup of the white chocolate chips and they almost didn’t make it in the oven because the batter was so good!

    These are our new favorite cookies! Simply, the best chocolate chip cookie I’ve ever made. Maybe it was my little helper (DS, age 22 months) or perhaps its just the best chocolate chip cookie recipe we’ve tried. Thank you for solving my quest for the best chocolate chip cookie .. onto my next Mommy mission!

    Do you think I could make these as a bar cookie in a 9×13 if I’m feeling lazy? 🙂

      I’ve never done it that way, Laura – but it’s worth a try. If you do, let me know how they turn out!

    Wonderful recipe!! Thank you soo much! I don’t know if this matters, but do I use salted or unsalted margarine/butter?

    Just made these and they are the best. I used unsalted butter.

    I used baking powder instead of baking soda, omitted the vanilla extract and used chocolate pudding mix and these made awesome brownies! I also baked them in muffin tins so every brownie had that little burnt edge ! Yumm!

    I made these a few months ago and my family and I couldn’t stop eating them. I prefer using milk chocolate chips, but when I make them again (which will be soon) I think I’ll try white chocolate chips with cheesecake pudding mix. I love these because they stay soft and taste better than regular chocolate chip cookies. Thanks for sharing this recipe 🙂

    I only had cook and serve vanilla pudding mix in my pantry and didn’t want to run out to the store (again), so I tried it. Worked perfectly fine, so don’t feel pressured to only use in the instant kind!

      Thanks for the tip, Kat! I wasn’t sure if the cook and serve would work.

    This is my first go-to cookie recipe. I always halve the fat: 1/2 c. butter and 1/2 c. shortening. The end result is the softest cookie in the world. I love the endless possibilities with these cookies! Red velvet pudding with dark chocolate chips, pistachio pudding with white chocolate chips & macadamia nuts, or my favorite chocolate with chocolate.

    Everyone always raves about them & I give them the link. Thank you so much for this!

    Next time I’m trying pumpkin pudding! Wish me luck (;

⚙️ Several recipes and countless taste tests later, we're proud to present our definitive Beerita Recipe, a symphony of flavors balanced to perfection. And the best part? They're a breeze to whip up!

📝 Here's the golden recipe:
12-oz. limeade

12 oz. tequila 🥃
12 oz. Sprite 🍾
1 C. ice ❄️

🗣️ From the Mixologists: We tried a version with one beer - good, but two beers? Even better. Worried about a 'beery' taste? Don't be! The beer merely offsets the tartness of the limeade, while the Sprite adds a refreshing fizz.
