Who doesn’t love cookies? They’re delicious in all colors, shapes, and sizes. But thick, fluffy cookies will always be my favorite! No sugary tasting crackers for me. Oh no. I like my cookies big and chewy.
So for this recipe, I used my secret cookie ingredient to achieve those results – vanilla pudding mix! I explained the science and the benefits of using pudding mix in my recipe for snickerdoodles. The effects really are incredible. Just look how thick that baby is! It’s like biting into a sugary cloud.
