Loved it!! I used white chocolate instant pudding, Crisco butter shortening and no nuts. Definitely a keeper. Next time will try with chocolate pudding @ my sons request (he's a chocolate addict).

WARNING - THESE COOKIES ARE VERY VERY ADDICTING! If you dont have the pudding mix the recipe works just as good. My cookies are taken out when the bottom is golden and the a little bit around edges. Most people will think there still raw but there not.They harden alittle bit so they dont fall apart in your hand.There the best cookies by far. Nice and chewy soft and get better the longer they sit. Enjoy!

Whoooo Hoo! Made a version of this recipe few years ago and was trying to find the similar one. This one is point on.. love the texture you get from the pudding!

Delicious!! I used dark choc-chunks! Yummy! Don't overcook them. Yummy!

My Mom used to make these when were kids! Stayed soft and tender! Trying them for Christmas hope they turn out the same as I remember.

So good! Just watch them close, my first batch was a little crispy. But they were the best for dipping in milk!

Made these yesterday and they came out perfect! And taste so heavenly! Nice appearance and so soft! I will defintely make these again! Thanks!

They were like little mounds of chocolate heaven!! Very fast & easy. Used chocolate pudding. Cooked for 10 minutes. They didn't look done, but they were. Moist & delicious.

Been using this recipe for 40 years. Now the secret is out! Try white chocolate chips. Awesome. Also, use chocolate pudding and Reeses peanut butter chips for a great alternative.

My mom got this recipe off a box of Jello many years ago and I get complements every time I make them, they are my dad's favorite!

I've used this recipe for 35 years, and it's an excellent one as the original, or for changing up simply by switching up the flavours of the the pudding you use and the different types of "chips". For Xmas I substitute baking gumdrops for the choc. chips. Try pistachio pudding along with white choc chips, and caramel pudding with peanut butter chips.

I found this recipe on the inside of a pudding box back in 1986. It has been a favorite for everyone who has tasted! We have done all kinds of variations, white chocolate macadamia, french vanilla pecan. Yum yum yum. Not a fan of using regular chocolate pudding but all others have been awesome.

I've been making these since I was a teenager. My Mom originally found this recipe and made them, then I took over making them. They are the only cookies I will make. You can use a variety of instant pudding flavors and chips. We've made them with chocolate raspberry chips (amazing, but can't find these chips anymore) and Andes mint chips. Since my Mom passed in 2016, I got her KitchenAid mixer, so now I can make them more often, even just on a Sunday afternoon for no reason. The one I just finished eating was divine! lol 30 years of making them down, 30 to go!

Beautiful tradition passes down from your Mom.

These cookies were so delicious!! We used cheesecake pudding mix and did green dye since its Halloween time and made Frankensteins. Quick and fun with the kids!!!

Wow these are simple and the best chocolate cookies I have ever had. I used butterscotch pudding. I only had instant sugar free and it was great. Thanks

So quick and easy! A crowd pleasing favorite. I used Pumpkin spice pudding and cinnamon chips as a fall treat. everyone loves them!

Turned out awesome! I used lemon instant pudding and chocolate chips. YUMMY!

Luv em! I was bored & my pantry was limited so I saw this tried it both kiddos & hubby downed them with milk...very good! I'll definitely make them again!

OMG!! These cookies are so good made these today and my husband said these are the best cookies so far. Followed the recipe but used vanilla chips instead of the chocolate. Bet you can't eat just one :)
