How to Make Peppermint White Chocolate Pudding Cookies
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt in a medium bowl.
Beat the unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar in a large mixing bowl until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Incorporate the instant vanilla pudding mix into the butter and sugars.
Add the large eggs and peppermint extract. Beat until everything is perfectly blended.
Combine the dry ingredient mixture with the wet ingredients gradually, mixing just until incorporated.
Fold in the white chocolate chips and crushed peppermint candies gently.
Scoop out rounded balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.
Cool the cookies on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
Optional: Drizzle with melted white chocolate for an extra touch of sweetness.
