Chocolate Chip Pudding Cookies – the softest cookies ever! Classic chocolate chip cookies made with pudding mix to keep them chewy and soft.
Before we get to these cookies, can we talk Real Housewives? Y’all know I have always been a Real Housewives fan. Since the first season of Orange County which was, what? 8 years ago? Yeah, I’m a big fan.
But I am so disappointed with every city these days. It seems like the longer someone is on a show, the more crap they have to promote. I swear New Jersey is 100% promotions these days. Bakeries, books, music, strange bottles of black water…? I mean, we haven’t seen a good ham game played in years. And no one’s been called a “prostitution whoraaa” in a way too long. I just want to go back to the good ol’ days – is that too much to ask?
Chocolate Chip Pudding Cookies!
So cookies.
I’ve seen cookies made with pudding mix around the interwebs for years now but I never have pudding in the house and I don’t ever plan to make cookies when I’m working on my grocery list.
But I somehow ended up with pudding in my pantry this week and new it was time to finally try these cookies.
They’re so good! They don’t really taste different from a normal chocolate chip cookie but they are super soft, just how I like my cookies. I’m really happy that I finally got around to trying them and hopefully I remember to stock up on pudding so I can try different versions. Definitely make these if you’re a fan of soft cookies!

I so agree with Real Housewives…. especially with New Jersey. They need to get non- family members on that show and make it more than a family feud that has been going on for how many seasons now?
BTW… I have a few boxes of pudding that I have acquried, but don’t really like pudding… this seems to be a perfect way to use them up!
I’ve always wanted to make pudding cookies! These sound awesome!
I’m obsessed with all the Housewives as well. I agree everyone of them is promoting something.
How many cookies did you get? Helps me decide on one cup choc chips or two cuz I will be making these.
I got 27 cookies but I could have gotten a couple more – didn’t want to bake another round just for 2 cookies. I probably used about 1 1/2 of chips. More is always better with chocolate!
Pudding cookies are where it’s at! I add it to mine all the time now. Not only are they great on the first day, but they stay soft forever! Now you have me craving them :)
Ever use any flavor pudding other than vanilla? Just wondering how that would turn out…
I haven’t tried any other flavors but I’m sure chocolate with chocolate chips would be delicious!
These cookies look great, can’t wait to try recipe. I love chocolate and so does the kids!
I love super soft cookies! Love RHOC, Beverly Hills, and New York. New Jersey, Miami and Atlanta not as much.
Oh yum! I adore a soft cookie :) I bet these are so amazing!!
these cookies were a snap to make. i made them half cup size, cooked for thirteen minutes and they turned out beautifully. they look great and taste yummy!
These cookies are insane. I want them all up in may face.
I got 48 cookies
Are you suppose to make these cookies with warm or cooled pudding or just the pudding mixture powder?
Just the pudding mix powder. :)
I loaded these up with mini cinnamon chips and a little more flour and baked 9 mins. Mine came out nice and thick. Hubbies says it’s one of the best cookies I’ve ever made!
These sound great! Do I use salted or unsalted butter? Light or dark brown sugar?
I always use unsalted and light brown sugar. :)
These sound great I think I will make a batch tomorrow, results later
