Ingredients

  • 1 cup unsalted butter room temperature
  • ¾ cup brown sugar lightly packed
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar
  • 1 3.4-ounce banana instant pudding mix
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 ½ teaspoons pure vanilla extract
  • 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ¼ teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 cup white chocolate chips
  • 1 cup Nilla wafer cookies crushed and divided

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and line a 17-inch (or other large) cookie sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the flour, salt, baking soda, and baking powder.
  • In a large mixing bowl cream together the butter and sugars until light and fluffy.
  • Add the dry pudding mix, eggs, and vanilla extract, and continue mixing until well combined.
  • Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and stir until just combined, making sure not to over mix the dough.
  • Fold in the white chocolate chips and ¾ cup of the Nilla pieces. The dough will feel quite thick (this is the correct consistency).
  • Scoop even mounds of the cookie dough onto the parchment-lined cookie sheets, making sure to space them out by 1 inch.
  • Gently press the remaining Nilla pieces into each cookie.
  • Bake for 10 minutes or until the edges start to turn golden brown and the cookies are still soft in the center.
  • Remove the cookie sheet from the oven and place it on a wire rack to cool for 5 minutes before enjoying.
