In the Kitchen : Chocolate Chip Cookies

Yesterday once I finally drug my butt out of bed I was craving some chocolate chip cookies bad! I have been 4 different kinds of frustrated with my good ol' recipe (from the bag of Nestle Chocolate Chips) so I decided to stray and find a new one.

After reading through approximately 27 of the 348 chocolate chip cookies recipes on AllRecipes I settled on one with two boxes of pudding (everybody knows adding pudding to cookies makes them super fluffy and moist - right? If not, now you do!)
They are delicious. Here's the recipe if any of you are looking for an incredibly yummy chocolate chip cookie! (Be warned, this recipe makes a TON of cookies - like well over 100!)

Award Winning Soft Chocolate Chip Cookies
(recipe found here)

Ingredients

• 4 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
• 2 teaspoons baking soda
• 2 cups butter, softened
• 1 1/2 cups packed brown sugar
• 1/2 cup white sugar
• 2 (3.4 ounce) packages instant vanilla pudding mix
• 4 eggs
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 4 cups semisweet chocolate chips
• 2 cups chopped walnuts (optional- I left these out)

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Sift together the flour and baking soda, set aside.
2. In a large bowl, cream together the butter, brown sugar, and white sugar. Beat in the two boxes of instant pudding mix until blended. Stir in the eggs and vanilla. Blend in the flour mixture. Finally, stir in the chocolate chips and nuts. Drop cookies by rounded spoonfuls onto ungreased cookie sheets.
3. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes in the preheated oven. Edges should be golden brown.

Enjoy!
