I have had this recipe for pudding chocolate chip cookies forever, it’s the best. Like don’t make a batch while home alone kind of good. They are soft, chewy, and the vanilla pudding adds a little depth and yummy-ness. Well, I whipped out the recipe the other day, went to the store to get everything, only to return home to find that I had bought cheese cake pudding instead of vanilla. I made them anyway (really how can you go wrong with cheese cake) and oh.my.word. What a happy mistake that was. Seriously, you must try – then come back and tell me they aren’t the best chocolate chip cookies you’ve ever had. Then tell me you ate half the batch in one sitting too. It’ll make me feel better

Cream Cheese (cheese cake) Pudding Chocolate Chip Cookies
Ingredients:
1 cup of softened butter
1/4 cup sugar
3/4 cup lightly packed brown sugar
2 eggs
1 tsp vanilla
1 large box cheese cake instant pudding (just the mix – do not prepare)
2 1/4 cup flour
1 tsp baking soda
dark chocolate chips – or semi-sweet if you prefer
- Cream the sugars and butter in a large bowl.
- Mix in the egg, vanilla, and pudding.
- Slowly add the flour and baking soda, and the chips last. Mix just until well combined.
Roll into 1 inch balls and place on a cookie sheet about 2 inches apart. Bake at 375 degrees for 7 to 10 minutes. You do not want to over cook these! Then place on a rack to cool.
Hope everyone is having a great Monday, I had a Valentine’s Day door hanger thingy for you today, but can’t the pics off my camera. So wish me luck and hopefully it will be up tomorrow!

Lord, that does sound good! I am definitely going to try these!
I was just wondering if there was supposed to be cream cheese listed to be in these since it is in the title? Maybe it is named for the cheesecake pudding?? I was just expecting to find cream cheese AND pudding in the ingredients. Wanted to check before I gave them a try. Thanks for sharing.
Hi Julie, I was worried about that! I chose just to say cream cheese in the title because they don’t taste like cheese cake, rather like cream cheese added. So no, you don’t need to add any cream cheese, just the pudding. Although, you may be onto something
Enjoy!
I have made them with chocolate pudding mix, as well as butterscotch! They are delicious!
Oh sheesh. Now you know I have to make another batch! Thanks Amanda
I haven’t made them yet to tell you I’ve eaten half of them, but I can I assure you when I do make them, my family will be lucky if they get to sample ONE! These just sound super scrumptious! Thank you for sharing the recipe! I had to share it with the Pinterest world!
Thanks so much for sharing Tonya!
When you say a large box of pudding mix, is that different from the standard Jello pudding boxes?
There are two sizes available, and I am not sure which one is considered standard. You need the size that has 5.1 ounces (at least I think that is the exact amount) not the 3.4 ounce.
That is a good point to bring up, I will have to check the exact size and add it to the recipe, thank you!
Enjoy!
These looks so moist and yummy! Come share at my new link party: http://www.dwellonjoy.com/2012/01/dwell-on-fridays-two.html. Hope to see you there!
I cannot wait to try these, pinned!
