Best Cookie Recipe Ever...

I'm a sucker for a great cookie recipe, especially chocolate chip! This is one that I've made over and over again & it never disappoints! I originally found it a few years ago on one of the recipe sites, but I tweaked some of the ingredient amounts & added the toffee chips. Occasionally, I'll even double the recipe & freeze half the dough to bake later. I'm not sure if it's the vanilla pudding or what, but these always turn out soft, dense & absolutely delicious! 

SOFT CHOCOLATE CHIP TOFFEE COOKIES

2-1/4 cups all-purpose flour

 1 teaspoon baking soda

 1 cup butter, softened

 3/4 cup packed brown sugar

 1/4 cup white sugar

 1 (3.4 ounce) package instant vanilla pudding mix

 2 eggs

 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

 2 cups semisweet chocolate chips*

1 package Heath Toffee Bits

*I'm a chocolate snob, and I use Ghirardelli 60% cacao chocolate chips:)

DIRECTIONS

Preheat oven to 350 degrees

Sift together the flour and baking soda.

In separate bowl, cream together the butter, brown sugar & white sugar. 

Beat instant pudding mix until blended. 

Stir in eggs and vanilla. 

Blend in the flour mixture. 

Finally, stir in the chocolate chips & toffee bits. 

Drop cookies by rounded spoonfuls onto ungreased cookie sheets.

Bake for 10 to 12 minutes.

Edges should be golden brown- do not overbake!

Enjoy:)
