Welcome to Taste and Tell Thursdays! Come link up your COOKIE posts below for a chance to win a collection of 9 cookbooks!!
I hope you all had a wonderful holiday!! I know that most people are taking it pretty easy this week, so I’m going to keep it short and simple today. If you you are a fan of super soft cookies, you have to try pudding cookies. They have been a favorite of mine for some time now, but looking back, I’ve only posted 2 recipes. And one of my favorite flavors is cookies and cream, so doing a cookies and cream pudding cookie was only natural! These cookies are stuffed full of goodies, but they can be altered easily, as well. White chocolate chips can replace the cookies and cream candy bars, and if you can’t find the cookies and cream pudding mix, vanilla pudding mix will work as a substitution. But this is a great way to get your cookie fix – because it is cookies in cookies!!
The ultimate cookies and cream cookie! Super soft pudding cookies made with cookies and cream pudding mix, Oreo cookies, and Cookies 'n' Creme chocolate.
Ingredients
- 3/4 cup butter, at room temperature
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 2 eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 1 pkg (4.2 oz) Cookies and Cream pudding mix
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 8 Oreo cookies, roughly chopped or crushed
- 5 oz Hershey's Cookies 'n' Creme chocolate bar, roughly chopped
Instructions
- Heat oven to 350F.
- In a large bowl, cream together the butter and both sugars until light and fluffy. Add in the eggs and mix until completely combined. Add in the vanilla.
- In another bowl, combine the pudding mix, baking soda, flour and salt. Add into the creamed mixture and mix until combined. Fold in the Oreos and Cookies 'n' Creme bar.
- Form dough into tablespoon sized balls and place 2 inches apart on an ungreased baking sheet. Bake in the oven for 8-12 minutes, or until set.

Thanks for sharing my sour cream cookies recipe!! They are SO good and have always been a family favorite recipe in my family!
@Colleen @ What’s Baking in the Barbershop?!, I can’t wait to try those sour cream cookies!!
Read the instructions 3 times…it doesn’t say anything about when to add the pudding mix. Does it go in with the vanilla or is it mixed in with the flour mixture?
@Judy, sorry – I missed the pudding mix! The recipe has been fixed. Thanks!
