Vanilla Pudding Cookies

By srumbel

I'll be honest here, vanilla pudding is not my favorite dessert. I do enjoy the flavor of pudding though, like in cakes, cookies and trifles. Yum! Here is a Vanilla Pudding Cookie; totally crunchy on the outside and soft and chewy on the inside. In other words, the perfect vanilla cookie.
