Fabulous cookies! I almost didn't let them chill for the full 2 hours, but I've never had a Kitten method go wrong, and I'm glad I listened. These spread perfectly and have a wonderful chewy center with that touch of crunch when you bite them. I used chocolate pudding, which is to die for with the cinnamon... I used a generous 2 teaspoons. I didn't have nuts or choco chips, so I left them out. I might add a touch of peanut butter next time, as that with the chocolate pudding could possibly be cookie heaven...

This was so good. The Butterscotch pudding mix was really good in the recipe. 8 minutes did turn out a little too short, so next time I will bake for longer, maybe ten minutes. I'm not into the whole coconut thing so when I do try another pudding mix it might be chocolate just because I'm a chocoholic. Thanks for a great cookie recipe.
