2teaspoonsbaking soda
1teaspoonfine sea salt
1cupunsalted butterat room temperature
¾cup granulated sugar
¾cuplight brown sugarlightly packed
2large eggs
1teaspoonpure vanilla extract
⅓cupinstant vanilla pudding(the dry mix, not prepared)
1 ¼cup old-fashioned rolled oatsnot to be confused with Quick-Cooking Oats
1cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350° and have ready a sheet pan lined with either a sheet of parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking soda, and sea salt and whisk to evenly combine. Set aside until ready to use.
Add butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar to the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment. If you do not have a stand mixer, use a large mixing bowl and a handheld mixer. Cream the butter and sugar for no less than 2 minutes on medium-high speed.
Add the eggs to the bowl one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Then add the vanilla extract, along with the powdered instant pudding and mix until combined.
With the mixer on low, gradually add in the dry ingredients, followed by the oats and the chocolate chips. Stop mixing as soon as everything comes together.
Scoop heaping tablespoons of cookie dough onto the baking mat spacing the cookies at about 2" apart. Bake for 12-14 minutes, until the tops of the cookies are golden brown. Serve and enjoy.
