Laura Vitale Instagram – These should come with a warning that says “warning, you won’t be able to stop eating them” they are sensational I tell you!! To make the dough in advance, scoop out onto a baking sheet and freeze, when ready to bake, allow them to come to room temperature for about 30 minutes then add 2 minutes of baking time to your total time (should be 10 minutes ) and they are perfect! I have not used a hot chocolate replacement so can’t advise on that. Yields about 4 dozen 1 cup of unsalted butter, softened at room temp 1/2 cup of brown sugar 1/2 cup of granulated sugar 2 eggs 2 tsp of vanilla 3 cups of all purpose flour 1 tsp of baking soda 1/2 tsp of salt 4 packs of Swiss miss hot chocolate (the milk chocolate) 2 tbsp of instant vanilla pudding mix 1 cup of mallow bits 1 cup of semisweet chocolate chips 2/3 cup of chopped (well chopped) semisweet chocolate bar, I use giardelli brand Scoop with a cookie scoop and bake on a parchment paper lined baking sheet at 375 for 8 minutes on the lower third and upper third of your oven!
