"I have so much fun with this recipe we have renamed it "Surprise Cookies". The possiblilities are as limited as your pudding, chips, and imagination. Variations I have tried are choc. pudding + choc ..." See morechips, choc pudding + peanut butter chips, lemon pudding + chocolate chips, vanilla pudding + raspberry chips, butterscotch pudding + butterscotch chips (our favorite). Just try whatever crosses your mind! As far as spreading out, I increased the flour to just a little more than 2 1/2 cups. Also, use stick margarine and NOT the soft spread type as they have way too much oil and water."

I omitted the nuts in both recipes, and increased the baking time to 11 1/2 minutes (because they were so "cake like" that they fell apart). Perfect adjustment! Thanks for the wonderful recipe!"
