YUMMY Chocolate Chip Cookies

I made these yesterday for a 4 of July BBQ that we went to. They went FAST too! I got this recipe from a lady in my Ward. She would bring these cookies every once and a while to church and I LOVED them. I finally asked her for the recipe in Dec. The only thing I changed was butter instead of margarine. Butter make the cookies softer (I believe at least).

Chocolate Chip Cookies

1 1/2 sticks butter-soft
1/4 c. brown sugar
1/2 c. white sugar

Cream together.

Then add:

1 egg
1 tsp vanilla
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp salt
1 3/4 c. flour
1 box instant vanilla pudding
1 1/2 c semisweet chocolate chips

Mix together. Bake at 350 for 12-14 minutes.

Suggestions:

I have made a recipe similar to this and it said that you can add chocolate instant pudding for double chocolate chip cookies. When I was looking for the vanilla pudding in my cupboard, I didn't think I had vanilla at that time, I was thinking about adding maybe cheesecake or a different flavor but I found the vanilla. I think I will experiment one of these days. :o)

Another suggestions instead of putting the cookie dough right on the pan, cover the pan with tin foil (shinny side down) & spray with PAM. That also makes the mess of cleaning a pan. You just have to throw the foil away & that is it.

Sentiment Secured Card

I finally got around to making a card from the new CTMH Cardmaking book, Wishes. I just LOVE CTMH how to books. It makes life a whole lot simpler because you don't have to think how to make a card or a scrapbook page. You just open the book and it tells you how to make a card or scrapbook page. Anyways back to the card. I made the card Sentiment Secured on page 78 on the Wishes book.

I used:
CTMH My Acrylix Stamp Gratitude C1322
CTMH Level 2 Paper Pack Evensong X7104B
CTMH Exclusive Inks Stamp Pad Cranberry Z2116
CTMH Exclusive Inks Stamp Pad New England Ivy Z2135
CTMH Colonial White Brad Z1106 (I sponge over the brad with CTMH Exclusive Inks Stamp Pad Cranberry)
