Hello ! I’m back with a recipe everyone, just like I said I would :) I don’t lie. (high five for figuring out the last sentence was a lie)

I don’t know about you, but I’m ALWAYS craving a good chocolate chip cookie.

Yenno what makes chocolate chip cookies better than they already are?

Vanilla Pudding Mix.

Yepp, that’s right. I kid you not!

Adding vanilla pudding mix gives it a softer texture and a huge vanilla flavour

The only problem I had with these cookies was that they didn’t spread much during baking. So if you like your cookies flatter, press them down a bit before baking.

So I have to confess something. I love eating cookies and all, but I’m not a huge fan of my own cookies. I don’t know what it is, but whenever I bake cookies they just don’t turn out right. Doesn’t matter what kind of cookie I make, they always seem to turn out tasting the same. I’ve made butterscotch, coconut white chocolate, and just plain ol’ chocolate chip. But other than the differen’t add-ins, the cookie dough part tastes the same. Is that normal? Also, the dough tastes like raw dough. Maybe I’m underbaking, but I’ve had way too much experiences with burning my cookies. And yenno how bakery cookies have the flat but cracky surface? somehow my cookies always end up with a smooth surface. Maybe it’s cuz I roll them with my hands into balls before baking.

Sigh. Cookies are hard to make.
