Chocolate Chip Cookies with Instant Pudding

Thank You so much! You are a lifesaver! I have had this recipe since I was in high school (we won't mention how long ago that was!) and I have recently misplaced it! I have a boyfriend whom I have never baked these homemade cookies for yet. He has a hankering for homemade chocolate chip cookies and I couldn't possibly make anything but this recipe for him! You are a saint! Thank you so much!

I have a recipe that uses two boxes of pudding mix - if thats what your lookin for contact me!

Hi, Candy!

Here is a chocolate chip cookie recipe from the Betty Crocker Ultimate Cookie Book that I've made before...only I tweaked it a little by adding the pudding mix to it. They turned out real good.
