The best chocolate chip cookies you will have are these Amish Chocolate Chip Pudding Cookies. You will never use another cookie recipe again after making these cookies.
Beat eggs in mixing bowl. Add sugar, butter, and shortening. When mixed well, add 3 boxes of instant pudding. Add vanilla flavoring.
In a separate bowl, mix all dry ingredients. Gradually add dry mixture to the egg mixture.
Add chocolate chips.
Bake for 10-12 minutes in 350° oven. When cookies are removed from the oven they should just barely be finished baking, since the pudding will continue to set as the cookies cool.
Notes
Don't use cooling racks. Use old newspapers to set the cookies on when you take the cookies off the pan.
