Chocolate Chip Fudge Cookies
Chocolate Chip Fudge Cookies are the best gooey, melt-in-your-mouth cookies that stay perfectly soft.
Ingredients
- 1 cup butter softened
- ¾ cup brown sugar
- ¼ cup sugar
- 3.4 oz. chocolate fudge instant pudding mix
- 2 eggs
- 1 t. vanilla extract
- ¼ cup cocoa powder
- 1 t. baking soda
- ½ t. salt
- ½ t. instant espresso powder
- ½ t. cayenne
- ¼ t. cinnamon
- 2 1/2 cups flour
- 12 oz. chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°.
- Cream the butter and sugars in a large bowl until fluffy.
- Beat in the pudding mix, eggs, and vanilla.
- Mix in the cocoa powder, baking soda, and spices until just combined.
- Slowly add the flour and mix until it’s just incorporated, then mix in the chocolate chips.
- Lightly roll into balls and place on a lined baking sheet.
- Bake at 350° for 10 minutes, just until they aren’t shiny – if you’re not sure, pull them out sooner rather than later!
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a rack.
