Best Chocolate Chip Cookies...EVER!!

My family is very serious about two things...

FAMILY and CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES!!! 

 

I mean my hubby wont eat a cookie if its not good (well unless hes trying to be polite). I think he considers him self an expert in the field of cookies!   The other day I bought some cookies just to have on hand if kids friends stopped by and he took one bit and decided that those were the grosses cookies ever and I wasn't to buy them again!  Well I guess he  made himself clear.

 

So I figured I better make him something cuz he LOVES his cookies!  Our family has a favorite...Chocolate Chip Pudding Cookies...Probably the best and moistest cookie around!

CHOCOLATE CHIP PUDDING COOKIES

31/3 cups unsifted flour

1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda

1 1/2 cups of butter or margarine, softened (not too much)

1 cup firmly packed brown sugar

1/2 cup granulated sugar

1 package (6 serving size) jello instance pudding (vanilla, chocolate, etc)

(for regular cookies use vanilla, for peanut butter use chocolate...experiment with different flavors)

1 1/2 teaspoon Vanilla

3 eggs

3 or 2 cups chocolate chips

1 1/2 cups chopped nuts (optional)

 

Mix flour with baking soda.  Combine butter, sugars, pudding mix, and vanilla in a large mixing bowl; beat until smooth and creamy.  Beat in eggs one at a time until creamy.  Gradually add flour mixture, mix well, then stir in chips and nuts.  (Batter will be stiff).  Drop by rounded measuring teaspoonfuls onto ungreased baking sheets, about 2 inches apart.  Bake at 375' for 8 to 10 minutes.  Makes about 10 dozen.

**They really freeze well...just scoop out on a cookie sheet, freeze and then place in a container with a layer of wax paper between each layer.  These ones are my Chocolate peanut butter cookies...These are AMAZING!!! 

 

ENJOY!!
