Craving Cookies

Lately, I have been craving chocolate.  Last night I wanted chocolate chips cookies. SOFT, homemade  chocolate chip cookies.  None of that break and bake stuff!  However, chocolate chips cookies are not on my diet plan and that stinks.  Maybe if I share the recipe with all of you, it will make my craving go away.  Since I didn't make the cookies, there is no picture, but we all know what chocolate chip cookies look like!

Chocolate Chip Cookies

2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 tsp. baking soda
1 cup softened butter or margarine
1/4 cup sugar
3/4 firmly packed light brown sugar
1 tsp. vanilla
2 eggs
1  12 oz. package chocolate chips
1 package (4 serving size) vanilla instant pudding*

Mix flour and baking soda, then set aside.  Combine butter, sugars, vanilla, and dry pudding mix in a large bowl; beat until smooth and creamy.  Beat in eggs.  Gradually add flour mixture; stir in chips.  The batter will be stiff.  Drop by rounded spoonfuls about 2 inches apart onto a baking sheet that has been sprayed with Baker's Joy or covered with parchment paper.  Bake at 375 degrees for 8 to 10 minutes.  Makes about 7 dozen.

*For chocolate chocolate chip cookies, substitute chocolate instant pudding.
