Sprinkle Pudding Cookies
These sprinkle pudding cookies have been a favorite with my kids since I started baking them over 10 years ago. Bake a batch soon, you’ll know why they love them so much after you take just one bite. Enjoy!
This is a cookie recipe that is very versatile.
You can add chocolate chips, nuts, dried fruit, you name it.
Or, eat them plain with sprinkles on top like in the photos.
The best part about these sprinkle pudding cookies are the texture. Soft and pillowy. That comes from the dry pudding mix. You can also, change around the pudding flavor. Chocolate works well and so does lemon and banana.
You can also add the sprinkles inside the batter for a funfetti cookie.
Seriously, the skies the limit! Go crazy and have fun with these.
Bake some with the kids. My kids always loved making these with me.
My daughter knows this recipe by heart and could probably bake them with her eyes closed. She has made them for her roommates in college and gave them out as gifts for the holidays.
Recipe note: Since the recipe is so simple with basic ingredients and measurements, it is easily doubled.
