Prep time: 15 min
Cook time: 30 min
Total time: 45 min
Yield: 4 servings
Ingredients: 1 cup unsalted butter (slightly softened); 1 cup sugar; ½ cup brown sugar; 2 eggs (beaten); 1 teaspoon vanilla extract; 1 teaspoon baking soda; 2 tablespoons warm water; ½ teaspoon salt; 3 cups flour; semi-sweet mini morsels chocolate chips (to your liking...I use MAYBE 1/2 cup); 1 (3 1/2 ounce) package French vanilla instant pudding (french vanilla turns out much better than regular vanilla)

Servings: persons

1 cup unsalted butter (slightly softened)
1 cup sugar
½ cup brown sugar
2 eggs (beaten)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon baking soda
2 tablespoons warm water
½ teaspoon salt
3 cups flour
semi-sweet mini morsels chocolate chips (to your liking...I use MAYBE 1/2 cup)
1 (3 1/2 ounce) package French vanilla instant pudding (french vanilla turns out much better than regular vanilla)

1
Cream together butter, sugar, brown sugar, eggs and vanilla until fluffy.
2
Add water, flour, salt and baking soda.
3
Stir until moistened.
4
(I recommend doing this step by hand as you do not want to overmx).
5
Add chocolate chips and instant pudding (if you like richer cookies, add a lot of chips.
6
Personally i like to taste the cookie over the chocolate and more chocolate chips.
7
affects the texture).
8
Fold into mixture just enough to BARELY combine.
9
I must stress the importance of this step.
10
overmixing will dramatically affect the perfection of the cookie.
11
You should have pudding mix that isn't fully mixed inches.This step is the trick to perfect texture.
12
Chill dough in refridgerator.
13
This isnt entirely necessary because they will still turn out great if you skip this step.
14
But, if i have time i've found it helps the cookies keep their shape and not flatten as much.
15
drop 1 inch dough onto cookie sheet 2 inches apart.
16
(I prefer stone bakeware).
17
Bake at 375 for 8-10 minutes.
18
light golden browning on edges is a good indicator that these are ready to take out.
19
You don't want to overcook these.
20
Leave on cookie sheet for about five minutes before you transfer to cooling rack (otherwise the will be gooey and fall through rack).
21
Enjoy!

Tips for the best results

Read through all the steps once before you start and measure out your ingredients first — it makes everything go more smoothly.
Preheat the oven fully and bake on the middle rack for the most even results.
Check for doneness a few minutes early — a toothpick in the center should come out with just a few moist crumbs.
Let it cool before slicing so it sets properly and holds its shape.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge and enjoy within a few days.

Variations & substitutions

Use a neutral oil or a plant-based spread in place of butter for a dairy-free version.
Brown sugar instead of white sugar adds a deeper, more caramel-like flavor.
A good 1:1 gluten-free flour blend works well if you need a gluten-free version.

No specific allergen information. Please check the ingredient list for possible allergens.
