Soft and chewy pumpkin snickerdoodle cookies made with a box of vanilla pudding mix and filled with chocolate chips. The pudding mix gives these easy cookies a more soft and chewy texture. Everyone will love the delicious pumpkin and chocolate flavors in these easy cookies this fall.
The cookie dough is made similar to a classic pumpkin cookie dough, except with the addition of vanilla pudding mix whisked into the flour mixture, and chocolate chips folded into the cookie dough. Roll the cookie dough into balls, and roll into a mixture of granulated sugar and ground cinnamon. Place the cookies onto a large ungreased baking sheet at least 2-inches apart. Bake until the cookies are fully cooked through.
