Soft Peanut Butter Pudding Cookies
These peanut butter cookies always turn out soft and chewy with a unique flavor accent, thanks in part to the addition of instant vanilla pudding mix. One thing I've been wanting to try, but just haven't gotten around to yet, is substituting the vanilla pudding for chocolate pudding. They will probably end up darker in color, but who doesn't love chocolate with their peanut butter?
Always a big hit for my two son's and their friends, I've also made these to share with my co-workers and there never seem to be any leftovers!
Just 7 ingredients is all it takes to make these special cookies.
Soft Peanut Butter Pudding Cookies
Ingredients:- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/8 teaspoon salt
- 1/3 cup butter
- 1/2 cup creamy or chunky peanut butter
- 1 (4-serving) package vanilla Jell-O instant pudding mix
- 1 egg
Directions:
Preheat oven to 375F degrees. Lightly grease baking sheets or line with parchment and set aside.
In a medium bowl, stir together the flour, baking soda and salt.
In a large mixing bowl, cream the butter. Mix in peanut butter and pudding mix until well blended.
Add egg and beat until light and fluffy.
Gradually add in dry flour mixture, beating until smooth.
Roll dough into 1-inch balls and place about 2 inches apart on prepared sheets. Slightly flatten each ball with a fork, making a criss-cross pattern.
Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, or until lightly browned.
Immediately transfer cookies to wire racks and cool completely.
This recipe makes about 2 1/2 dozen Soft Peanut Butter Pudding cookies.
