Jim's Special Pudding Mix Cookies
My son Jim started baking cookies when he was nine years old, and has been baking and cooking ever since. His specialty is smoking meat and making all the trimmings for work, school, church, and other groups. But one thing he enjoys best is developing new cookie recipes. I felt he wouldn't mind if I shared this recipe, one of his favorites, with AC readers. I just call it:
Jim's Pudding Cookies
1 cup granulated sugar
1 cup brown sugar
1 cup or 2 sticks of Parkay margarine (or butter)
1 package pudding mix, any flavor
2 eggs
2 tsp. vanilla
Mix together in mixer bowl and cream well. Then add:
2 ½ cups flour
1 tsp. baking soda
½ tsp. salt
Mix well. If desired, nuts, chocolate chips, coconut, or even chopped, drained, maraschino cherries can be added, according to flavor of pudding mix chosen.
Roll into 1-inch balls, or drop by spoonfuls onto lightly greased or sprayed cookie sheets. Bake at 375 degrees until set and lightly browned. Remove to wire racks to cool.

Sounds delicious
I have a chocolate chip cookie recipe that has pudding mix in it, and they are the best! Thanks for sharing this. I'm saving it.
very good recipe :)
Double and triple yum!
ooh nice job sounds really yummy. I love my cookies!
I talked to Jim today and he said he uses instant pudding in these cookies and that butter works better than margarine.
What an interesting idea! I'll have to try it.
