After a long weekend of moving and unpacking, we earned these cookies!
They might just be my most favorite cookies ever ever ever. I originally posted them to the blog in March of 2011 and that post was in desperate needs of a makeover. I’ve made them so many times since, but it had been a while. We took a short break from unpacking (yes we are all moved in!!) to go to the pool for a BBQ and I couldn’t show up empty handed. These cookies popped into my head while I was wandering the grocery store while wandering around aimlessly trying to come up with something to make. Does that ever happen to you?
Two key ingredients to these that you need- Instant Oreo Pudding and Hershey’s Cookies and Cream Chocolate Bars. The pudding makes these babies so thick and soft and perfectly moist. And the hint of Oreo flavor combined with chunks of the Cookies and Cream bars is heavenly.
That dough though ↑????
It’s amazing. I could eat it all without baking any cookies. I allowed myself to have one today, and it’s back to clean(ish) eating today!
Always under bake these just slightly. Eight minutes is always perfect, let them cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes and then transfer to a cooling rack. Pour a glass of milk and en-joy!
- 1 cup butter, room temp
- 3/4 cup brown sugar
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1 (4oz) package instant Oreo Pudding mix
- 2 1/4 cups flour
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 2 eggs
- 1 tsp vanilla
- 3 Hershey's Cookies N Cream Candy Bars broken into small pieces
- 2 cups milk chocolate chips
- Preheat oven to 350.
- In stand mixer beat butter and sugars together until creamy. Beat in eggs, vanilla, and Oreo pudding mix.
- In another bowl combine flour and baking soda. Slowly beat the flour mix into the wet mix. Stir in the Hershey's Cookies N Cream Candy Bar pieces and chocolate chips.
- Scoop with a cookie scooper on to parchment lined baking sheets. Bake for 8 minutes. Transfer to a cooling rack and let cool for several minutes before removing.
My favorite all-time chocolate chip cookie I’ve made was with french vanilla pudding, it just does something to the batter that makes it SO good. I don’t think I even knew there was an Oreo Pudding, but I’ll have to try that out!
I must try this! I agree with the previous poster that one of my favorite chocolate chip cookie recipes has vanilla pudding in it so I know these will be amazing.
I HAVE TO MAKE THESE!
They look amazing!
I don’t think I’ve ever heard of a pudding cookie before! :O I wanna try one now1
Oh YUM! I have to make these, they sound palate pleasing for sure.
Congratulations on your new dwelling 🙂
I made these as my last sugar hoorah… I made 24 cookies…. I ate 4, Rich ate 2, I gave 6 to my neighbors and the two missionaries that ate dinner at our house ate 12 between them… you made some missionaries very happy tonight 🙂 THANKS!

I was planning on making these but can’t find Oreo pudding mix! The good ol’ Corvallis Winco doesn’t carry it! Hmmmm…. I’ll keep up the hunt, it’ll be worth it!
I can’t wait to give these a try!
Oh boy, I’ve heard of using vanilla pudding in cookies, but, being a cookies and cream fan, I’m all for your idea. Delish! I have a sweet treat linky party going on at my blog and I’d like to invite you to stop by and link your cookies up. http://sweet-as-sugar-cookies.blogspot.com/2011/03/sweets-for-saturday-8.html
I am planning on making these this weekend and all I could find is the Oreo pudding mix in a 4.2 ounce box. When you said the “small box” did you mean the 3.4 ounce box?
I also could only find the 4.2 ounce box, is this the one that you are talking about? Soooo excited to make these. I found cookies and cream easter bunnies…on sale for 50 cents:)
Wow! I made these and now they are one of my favorite cookies. Thanks for sharing. I posted them on my blog at http://www.mycrazybliss.com
Found you through the girl who eats anything…these look amazing! Can’t wait to try them! THanks!
we tried these last night and they came out hard as rocks. The dough was all dry & not cookie dough-ish at all. Not sure what we did wrong.
left out the candy bar was still good
Do you prepare the oreo pudding ahead of time or just dump in the dry mix?
I have a recipe for chocolate chip pudding cookies that you make with instant chocolate pudding mix. They have been a family favorite for years! So I know that other types of pudding cookies have to be awesome. Thanks for sharing this!
When I’m making any regular box cake I always add either a chocolate or vanilla snack pack pudding to the batter. Makes it super moist ad only requires one snack pack!
Thank you, thank you, thank you! I’m using this recipe as my chocolate chip cookie recipe from now on. I’m posting them on my blog tonight. Also, I blame you for the ten pounds I’m probably gaining as I type! 🙂
how many cookies does this recipe make?
Did you use king size candy bars?
try to make these with cocoa, so that the dough is chocolate. I mean, oreos are made with a chocolate cookie..
had these yum yummy !!!!!!!!
Love that you re-did this post! The cookies look amazing!!
Thanks Roxana!!
