Butterscotch Pudding Cookies- Soft and chewy cookies made with a standard cake mix and instant pudding mix. The butterscotch flavor is just right for fall!
Ingredients Needed:
- Vanilla cake mix
- Eggs
- Butterscotch instant pudding mix
- Butter
- Butterscotch baking chips
Cake Mix: This will actually work with any flavor cake mix, so, you can pick any flavor you wish. Just be sure to stick with a standard size box ( 15-18 oz) to work with the ingredients listed.
Pudding Mix: Make sure it’s INSTANT pudding mix and not cook/serve. Also, do not make the pudding! The dry mix is all you need. Like the cake mix, any flavor will work, as long as the box size is the same as noted in the recipe.
Butterscotch Baking Chips: These are located in the same area as regular chocolate chips in your grocery store. If you can’t locate them, check out the recipe card.
Candy Corn? I tossed a few candy corn in the batter for a bit of fall fun. These are totally optional. As you can tell from the pics, they do melt a bit when baked. So, don’t use too many.
How to Make:
- First, make the batter. If it seems thick, that’s OK…it’s suppose to be.
- Once the batter is made, scoop about a tablespoon of dough and roll it into a ball. Place on your prepared baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining dough.
- Bake them up.
- Once done, let them sit for about 5 minutes before removing from the baking sheets. Then, remove and let the cool on wire rack.
Storage: Keep any leftover cookies in a covered container. Refrigerating them is not necessary. If desired, you can freeze these for future use. Simply keep them in a covered freezer safe container or storage bag. Use with 2-3 months.

Yay! Thanks for the feature Miz Helen!
First of all, your Butterscotch Pudding Cookies photo is gorgeous and made me want to eat the cookies off the page! Second, my grandmother always kept candy corn in a particular little drawer. When I’d visit her, I would go straight to the little drawer for candy corn. I try to stick to sugar-free desserts. But I have to make these cookies!
Thanks Angie!
