Oatmeal Pudding Cookies image

These cookies are *fabulous*. They bake out crispy around the edges and soft in the middle--they are just the perfect texture! Have fun with this recipe and try different flavors of pudding mix. Butterscotch is good, coconut cream works well also just add in shredded coconut to the batter. Plan ahead, the cookie batter needs to chill for a minimum of 2 hours before baking.
