Ingredients
- 2 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
- 3.4 ounces instant pistachio pudding mix
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 cup unsalted butter softened (2 sticks)
- 8 ounces cream cheese softened
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup semi sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
- Combine the flour, pudding mix, and baking powder in a medium mixing bowl. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, beat together the butter, cream cheese, and sugar until light and fluffy. Add the egg and vanilla and mix until smooth.
- Gradually add the flour mixture to wet ingredients mixing until just combined.
- Stir in chocolate chips using a rubber spatula.
- Refrigerate the cookie dough for 1 hour.
- Preheat our oven to 350 degrees F.
- Use a cookie scoop to portion the dough and then roll into 1-inch balls. Place about 2-inches apart of a parchment paper or silicone mat-lined baking sheet.
- Flatten the cookie dough balls slightly with the bottom of a glass. Don't squish them too much, just enough to flatten the top.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the bottom edges are lightly browned. Remove the cookies to a wire rack to cool completely.
