Soft peanut butter pudding cookies bursting with milk chocolate chips, peanut butter chips, and Reese’s Pieces. Just describing these soft little cookies to you gets my mouth-watering! I have several pudding cookie recipes bookmarked to try, but these cookies are first pudding cookies I have ever made. After one delicious bite, I was left wondering why in the world did I wait so long?!
Adding instant pudding makes the cookies so moist that they just melt in your mouth. They’re best warm from the oven (seriously what cookie isn’t?) but also taste amazing at room temperature. If you’re a chocolate and peanut butter fanatic like me, this recipe is for you! So what are you waiting for? These cookies aren’t going to bake themselves! So pour that glass of cold milk and get baking, just be careful you don’t burn your tongue on those melty chocolate chips!
