These Chocolate Chip Pudding Cookies are insanely thick, soft, and chewy, and make for the BEST low point cookie-I guarantee EVERY cookie lover will LOVE these!!
Makes 36 cookies (3-inch)
What ingredients do I need to make these Chocolate Chip Pudding Cookies?
- All-purpose flour– you can substitute the all purpose flour for coconut flour, almond flour, or gluten free flour- keep in mind the point values may vary depending on which brand you use.
- Baking soda
- Light butter-softened. I use Land O’ Lakes light butter made with canola oil. Any light butter would work- however I don’t recommend using unsweetened applesauce- these cookies need the creaminess of the light butter.
- Zero point brown sugar sweetener- I use Lakanto Golden sugar sweetener
- Zero point white sugar sweetener- I use Lakanto monkfruit Classic or Baking sweetener
- Sugar free instant vanilla pudding mix-You could substitute the vanilla for any flavor such as: cheesecake, chocolate fudge, or white chocolate pudding mix. This is the key ingredient-which makes these chocolate chip cookies so soft and fluffy!
- Eggs or egg whites- be sure to have the eggs at room temperature prior to beating them into the batter.
- Vanilla extract
- Sugar free chocolate chips– I like to use ChocZero milk chocolate chips. You could use dark, semi sweet, or white no added chocolate chips, if you desire. Save 10% off your order of the ChocZero item using promo code: pounddropper. Click HERE to order.
What are the tips in making perfect Chocolate Chip Pudding Cookies every time?
- Measuring the flour correctly. Spoon the flour into the measuring cup then scrape it off the top.
- Use parchment paper. It creates even baking and the cookies stay thick and don’t spread as easily.
- Be sure your eggs are at room temperature prior to mixing them into the batter.
- Do not OVER-MIX the cookie dough. As soon as the flour mixture is mixed, stop. Otherwise you will end up with hard cookies.
- Fold in half of the chocolate chips and then add a few more chocolate chips to the top of the cookie right before cooking. That makes them look prettier!
- Use instant pudding mix in the batter-this is the secret ingredient that makes these chocolate chip cookies stay soft!
What sweetener do I use to make these Chocolate Chip Pudding Cookies?
These can be made with any white granulated sugar sweeteners. Keep in mind not all sweeteners are the same..they may vary in sweetness and point values.
Lakanto Baking Sweetener matches the sweetness of sugar, helping you fill your kitchen with a healthy cup-for-cup alternative to ordinary baking and cooking ingredients. If you use a different sweetener be sure to use the ratio for regular sugar that it states on back of the package.
I use the Golden for a Brown Sugar Alternative:
The Classic for a Granulated White Sugar Alternative
Or the Baking Sweetener Alternative

How do I make these Chocolate Chip Pudding Cookies?
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Line two to three baking sheets with parchment paper. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together flour and baking soda and set aside.

In a separate large bowl, cream butter and white and brown sugar sweeteners.

Add in the pudding mix and beat until light and fluffy.

Add eggs or egg whites and vanilla
and beat until smooth.

Slowly add half of the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and turn the mixer on low so the flour doesn’t get everywhere.
Gradually turn the mixer up to high and mix until combined. Be careful you don’t want to over mix-otherwise you will end up with tough cookies.
Add the rest of the dry ingredients and repeat until dough is just combined.

Fold in 1/4 cup chocolate chips and stir well until all ingredients have been incorporated
.
Drop rounded balls of dough onto prepared baking sheets using a Tablespoon or a medium cookie scoop (about 1.5-tablespoons)
leaving about 2-3 inches between each cookie.

Evenly press the remaining chocolate chips on top of each cookie.

Bake for 12-15 minutes or until cookies start to brown around the edges. Remove from oven.

Cookies will appear undone but will continue to bake on the hot baking sheet.

These are amazing! I’ve made them numerous times and with a variety of pudding flavors, white chocolate, banana, cheesecake, all yummy! One time I made them with half light butter and half reduce fat cream cheese, that was a game changer and I highly recommend! Thx for all your great recipes! They help me to stay eating healthy and enjoying what I’m eating!

I just want to confirm that only 1 oz (about 28g) of pudding mix is needed. It says 1 pkg but has 1 oz in brackets but all my pudding packs are closer to 3 oz.

HI Kelly
Most of the sugar free pudding packages come in a 1 oz. package box- Are you using regular pudding-the reason I ask is-the regular pudding box is usually 3 oz.
If so, I recommend weighing out 1 oz. if you are wanting to substitute the sugar free pudding mix for regular pudding.

Are you using light stick butter or the light butter in the tub. I can only seem to find the light butter in the tub. Will that work ok? Thank you for all your wonderful recipes.

Hi Leslie
I use the softened Land o Lakes light butter made with canola oil that is found in the tub. I scoop it right into a measuring cup and it works great!
Thank you!
