Ingredients
4 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
2 tsp baking soda
2 cup butter, softened
1 1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
1/2 cup white sugar
3.4 oz instant vanilla pudding mix
4 eggs
2 tsp vanilla extract
4 cup semisweet chocolate chips
2 cup walnuts, chopped
Preparation
Preheat oven to 350° F.
Sift together the flour and baking soda, set aside.
In a large bowl, cream together the butter, brown sugar, and white sugar using a hand mixer at low power.
Beat in the instant pudding mix until blended. Stir in the eggs and vanilla. This is where you start using a spatula.
Blend in the flour mixture. Finally, stir in the chocolate chips and nuts.
Drop cookies by rounded spoonfuls onto ungreased cookie sheets.
Bake for 10-12 minutes in the preheated oven. Edges should be golden brown.
