Very Delicious Chocolate Chip Cookies

I came across this chocolate chip recipe years ago (I have no idea where it came from). It has been passed on to many family and friends...everyone is always requesting my homemade chocolate chip cookies. One of the special ingredients in this recipe is a package of instant pudding (vanilla or chocolate). Use milk chocolate chips instead of semi-sweet chocolate chips. Enjoy!
