Mint Chocolate Chip Pudding Cookies

November 13, 2012 By Jennifer @ PB and P Design 21 Comments

Howdy Partners,

I am writing this on Saturday evening so I can get a quick jump on my posts for the week.  I figured if I did this now, for one I wouldn’t snack and two I can focus on exercise and making healthy dinners throughout the week!  After my Saturday indulgence, I am going to start my week out right, starting with a wholesome healthy breakfast!  But today I do not have a healthy breakfast for you, that will be tomorrow, I think?  But I have my Saturday indulgence to share with you!

See these little Guys?  They are extremely dangerous!  Dangerous I tell ya!!  All day they taunted me, telling me to eat me, eat me!!  If you ask me to eat something, I feel the need to say ok, after all how can I say no?  So I ate one, then two, then three, then I thought these taste really familiar what is that taste?  Eat four, eat five and finally on my sixth one, I realized what these cookies taste like.  Ready for this…


They taste like Girl Scout Thin Mints!  I can’t believe I accidentally recreated a cookie that tastes like Girl Scout Thin Mints!  I feel like I discovered a million dollars or something!!  I have to thank Little Jenny for this.  Before she went to work, I asked her if she wanted me to make her any cookies for her and her boyfriend Saturday night and she said, yah, Mint Chocolate Chips.  I think we are all on a mint kick this week!  I wouldn’t have discovered these gems if it wasn’t for her.  I don’t know if I should love her or hate her for this!!  When she came home from work, she took a bite of the cookie and said “Oh My Gosh” with a mouth full of cookies.  Can I take the whole batch with me?  I was happy to give them to her, because if they were here right now, I’d be eating one while I was typing this!!  Just look at them!!

See what I mean about dangerous?  At least the cookies are only 59 calories each!  But having 6 of them, kind of adds up!!  This recipe is also very easy to make!  It’s a basic batch of cookies, but the secret ingredient is Jello Sugar Free Instant Pudding, Fudge flavor!!  I never put pudding in my cookies before, I’ve done cake batter but never pudding.  I am pretty surprised on how well they turn out!!  I am so glad I tried this!!!  You have to try pudding in cookies, it’s crazy good.  It adds a whole new dimension to your cookie!

Do you crave danger?  If you do, then these cookies are for you!  I bet you can’t eat just one!  Ohhh, these would be so good with a Peppermint Latte!  Man, I think I need to make more of these, no I don’t!!  I have no control!  I really need a new hobby!

    Oh my goodness! I LOVE chocolate and mint together.

    I normally make creme de menthe brownies for one of my Christmas “cookies,” but these might have to take over as this year’s mint and chocolate offering!

    Last week, I bought a bag of those Nestle Dark Chocolate and Mint Chips simply because they just looked so tempting as I was strolling through the baked goods isle, and now it looks like they can do a happy dance with some chocolate pudding. Thanks for sharing this recipe on our Holiday Cookie Recipe Swap. I’m pinning this and WILL be making them soon.

Happy Tuesday! One thing you guys know about me is Happy Tuesday! One thing you guys know about me is that I love Target. It’s my happy place. I get so excited each season to see all the new things that come out. 
🌿
One thing I always love is there faux vase/pot flowers and plants. They are always so pretty and I want to buy them all. But there a couple of things that stops me. The biggest one is that I have no storage for them. Two, they seemed to have gone up in price. They seemed a little pricy to me. 
🌿
For my arrangement, I used one of my canisters for the bathroom. I used floral foam to stick the stems in and I used the paper towel as a filler because I only had very little bit of moss. If I had more moss and I would probably not use the paper towel. This arrangement cost me $5.99. 
🌿
Tip: If you look at Targets faux foliage stems only, they have a lot that are same of what use in there vases. The one I used was Hearth and Hand and was only $5.99 for a stem. The exact ones they used in there pots.
🌿
Hope you enjoy this as much as I have making it. 
Enjoy your day!

Happy Thursday! As you may know I did my deep clea Happy Thursday! As you may know I did my deep cleaning in my kitchen on Monday. I washed the floors, cabinets, counters and decluttered the countertops. It feels so good and everything is so bright and clean. Well….
💖
My husband decided to take vacation days this week, and my kitchen does not look so pretty. He has his 💩 everywhere. So annoying. 
💖
Here’s a little bit of the styling that I did. I will work on the coffee bar this weekend, though I’m running a blank on how to style it. I need some inspiration.
💖
What do you do to get inspiration?

I’m sharing heart shaped cinnamon rolls that I made this weekend. I got the idea to make them from my friend Heidi @eleanorrosehome. She made the most delicious looking cinnamon rolls, that I couldn’t resist to make. So perfect for Valentines Day and sooooo easy! 
❤️
I took a can of Trader Joe’s cinnamon rolls and unraveled them, if that makes sense, and rolled them up like a palmier cookie. So fun! You could add food coloring to the frosting to make it pink and add sprinkles. Super cute! You can follow step by step recipe on Heidi’s Instagram page! 
❤️
Thank you Heidi for sharing the recipe. This was so fun!
❤️
Would you rather get chocolate or flowers for Valentines Day?

🌿
I’m sharing with you my corner of my living room. I love how open this space looks. I added greenery to give it a fresh look. I also stuck with mostly natural colors with an exception of some blues to bring my whole living room together. 
🌿
Tomorrow I am going to start to share Valentines Day. My dining room is filling up with hearts. It’s so fun. I can’t wait to start sharing. Hope you have a beautiful day!
