Soft, melt-in-your-mouth St. Patrick’s Day cookies made with vanilla pudding mix and festive green sprinkles.
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup butter, softened
1 egg
1/3 cup milk
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp baking soda
2 cups all-purpose flour
3.4 oz instant vanilla pudding mix
1/2 cup St. Patrick’s Day sprinkles
1. Preheat oven to 375°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat.
2. In a large bowl, cream together the sugar and softened butter until light and fluffy.
3. Add the egg and milk, stirring until well combined.
4. Mix in the salt, dry pudding mix, and baking soda. Beat until the mixture is smooth.
5. Gradually add the flour, mixing until the dough comes together and no white streaks remain.
6. Scoop about 1 tablespoon of dough and roll into a ball. Roll the ball in a bowl of sprinkles until coated.
7. Place balls 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheet.
8. Bake for 8-10 minutes until the edges are just set but the centers still look soft.
9. Cool on the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
Do not prepare the pudding; use the dry mix only.
Use instant pudding, not cook-and-serve.
Ensure butter is softened to room temperature for the best texture.
