2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
3/4 cup packed brown sugar
1/4 cup white sugar
2 eggs
2 tbsp vanilla extract
1 cup softened butter
1 (~3 oz) package instant vanilla pudding mix
2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Sift flour, baking soda, baking powder
and salt in a large bowl. In another large bowl, mix brown sugar,
white sugar, eggs and vanilla together. Add and cream butter into
sugar mix. Put sugar mix in the fridge for 10 minutes to allow butter
to solidify (makes for a fluffier cookie). Remove from the fridge and
mix in the instant pudding mix. Stir in flour mix. Finally, stir in
chocolate chips (can also add 1 cup chopped walnuts if desired). Place
rounded spoonfuls onto ungreased cookie sheets. Bake for exactly 12
minutes. Edges will be slightly golden brown. Remove from cookie
sheet after 5 minutes and on to cooling racks.
