Instructions
Prepare baking sheets
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats to prevent sticking and ensure even browning.
Mix the dough
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the pudding mix, Bisquick, and oil. Add the egg. Stir with a wooden spoon until the mixture begins to form a dough.
Once the dough starts to come together, use your hands to gently knead until it becomes smooth and cohesive, resembling a soft, pliable texture. Knead in the chocolate or butterscotch chips until evenly distributed.
Shape the cookies
Using rounded tablespoons of dough, roll the dough into balls. Arrange them evenly on the prepared baking sheets, leaving space between each. Keep the dough rounded; do not flatten.
Bake
Bake for approximately 12 minutes, or until the cookies are puffed and the centers have just set.
For consistent baking, rotate the baking sheets from top to bottom and front to back halfway through the baking time.
Cool
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes. Then, use a thin metal spatula to transfer them to a wire rack to finish cooling.
Enjoy on the day they are baked or the following day for optimal softness.
Notes
To prepare this Pudding Mix Cookies recipe gluten-free:
Replace Bisquick with a gluten-free pancake/baking mix of similar texture.
Confirm that the pudding mix and chocolate/butterscotch chips are certified gluten-free, as some brands may include additives containing gluten or be processed in shared facilities.
All other ingredients are naturally gluten-free, making this adaptation simple.
