Cookie tweak

[NMDemDist2]

Hubby loves "chocolate chip cookies' without the chocolate chips :rofl:

my last try came out flat flat flat, tasty, but flat

so I wanted to try tweaking it and these came out great

Ingredients:

* 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
* 1 teaspoon baking soda
* 1 teaspoon salt
* 1/2 cup (1 stick) butter, softened
* 1/2 cup shortening
* 3/4 cup granulated sugar
* 3/4 cup packed brown sugar
* 1 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
* 2 large eggs
* 1 box instant vanilla pudding mix

Directions:
PREHEAT oven to 375° F.

COMBINE flour, baking soda and salt in small bowl. Beat butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar and vanilla extract in large mixer bowl until creamy. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Gradually beat in pudding mix, then flour mixture. Drop by rounded tablespoon onto ungreased baking sheets.

BAKE for 11 to 13 minutes or until edges turn golden brown. Cool on baking sheets for 2 minutes; remove to wire racks to cool completely.


YUMMO!!!
