Ultimate Soft Chocolate Chip Cookies

1. Step 1

   Start by preheating your oven to a cozy 350°F (175°C), creating the perfect environment for your cookies to bake.

   Now, grab a large mixing bowl and let’s get to the fun part! Cream together the softened butter, brown sugar, and white sugar until the mixture is smooth and creamy.

   This is where the magic begins! Next, mix in the instant vanilla pudding mix until everything is well blended.

5. Step 5

   Then, add in the eggs and a splash of vanilla extract, stirring until fully combined.

   Gradually add the flour mixture to your buttery goodness, stirring gently until just combined.

   Don’t overdo it; we want those cookies to be soft and chewy! If you’re feeling adventurous, fold in some semisweet chocolate chips and chopped walnuts for that extra crunch and flavor.

9. Step 9

   With your cookie dough ready, drop rounded spoonfuls onto ungreased cookie sheets, making sure to space them about 2 inches apart.

    This gives them room to spread and become the delightful treats we all love.
