Favorite Chocolate Chip Cookies

This is my all time favorite, no-fail chocolate chip cookie recipe. Growing up I used to eat these at Courtney's house every Sunday and I haven't made a different recipe since. Enjoy!

1 cube butter
1 cube margarine
1/8 cup sugar
3/4 cup brown sugar
1 small package instant pudding (vanilla)
2 eggs
1 tsp vanilla
2 1/4 cup flour
1 tsp baking soda
1 cup chocolate chips

Hint for perfect cookies: Do not soften butter!
Cream butter, margarine and sugars. Add pudding. Beat in eggs and vanilla. In separate bowl, mix baking soda into flour then add flour mixture to cookie mixture. Dough will be stiff. Add chips. Drop on ungreased cookie sheet. Bake at 375 for approx 11 minutes. Makes 40 cookies

Yummy variations: use chocolate pudding for chocolate-chocolate chip cookies, white chocolate chips, peanut butter chips, etc. Be creative!
