Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
In a separate bowl, cream together softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy (about 3 minutes).
Add instant pudding mix, eggs, and vanilla extract to the creamed mixture; beat until combined.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture until just combined. Fold in the chocolate chips.
Drop cookie dough balls onto the prepared baking sheet using a large scoop or measuring cup.
Bake for 10-12 minutes until slightly golden on top but still soft in the center. Let cool on the baking sheet for two minutes before transferring to a cooling rack.
