Steps:
- 1. Preheat oven to 375
- 2. Combine flour and baking soda in small bowl and seet aside
- 3. Mix butter and brown sugar until well combined. Add granulated and sugar and blend well. Add pudding mix and blend thoroughly.
- 4. Add eggs one at a time and mix well.
- 5. Gradually add flour mixture until thoroughly combined.
- 6. Stir in nuts, craisins and chocolate chips.
- 7. Drop by teaspoonful (for small cookies) or Tablespoonful (for large cookies) onto ungreased cookie sheet setting them about 2" apart to allow for spreading.
- 8. Bake for 8 - 12 minutes depending on the size you chose. Cool and enjoy !
- 9. NOTES: I have found that the instant vanilla flavor works best. Using other flavors I found the cookies to be a bit dry. If you want a chocolate flavor dough I would add a bit of cocoa to the mixture. I prefer salted nuts as they add a nice dimension to the finished product. I use macadamia nuts for their unique flavor and crunch, but pecans are very tasty also. I love dried cranberries in this recipe, however, I did make them one time with dried cherries and they were delicious! Feel free to exchange the craisins for cherries or apricots or whatever floats your boat ! The chips can be semi-sweet, milk chocolate or white chocolate - it's all a matter of preference.
