Chocolate Chocolate Chunk Pudding Cookies
From scratch cookies are a treat bakers of all skill levels can master. As with any baking project, it takes practice and even sometimes failure to figure things out and get really good at it. There are slight variables with ingredient quality and ovens but, I assure you it can be done. Furthermore, why wouldn't you want to? Baking from scratch be it fresh cookies, layer cakes, pies or cobblers really show the love in the small amount of effort that it takes to make them.
Cookie Dough Freezes Beautifully for Make-Ahead Preparation
Freshly made cookie dough is incredibly forgiving and can be stored in the fridge or even frozen, if you like. When there's cookie dough chillin' in the fridge that means you can enjoy the luxury of freshly baked cookies any time. Fill your cookie jar with these cookies or you may consider keeping them all to yourself. It's completely up to you.

Thanks so much for your reply! I'll give this a try. This is my son's favorite cookie and I wanted to put in some red food coloring for Chinese New Year!
Melissa
You're most welcome, let us know how it goes!
Carol Lakumb
Can I add red food coloring to make them red devil style cookies? Thanks!
Melissa
Hi Carol, while I haven't tested adding additional liquid, you may be able to tint the dough using a red gel coloring. This would tint the cookie dough without adding liquid to change the texture.

Which size cookie scoop would give the same size cookies? I have the 1,2 & 3 tbsp size cookie scoops.
Melissa
These cookies can e made any size you like. The larger of those 3 sizes would be closest to the cookies in the images.
Terri
This recipe calls for one "3/4- oz box chocolate fudge or chocolate instant pudding mix." Should that be a 3.9-oz box of instant pudding mix? That is the smallest box available that I have found.
Melissa
That should read 3.4 oz instant pudding. If you can only find 3.9 oz that works.
