Chocolate Chip Oatmeal Cookies

Vanilla pudding mix kicks cake-like textures into this cookie. As usual, I read the reviews before making my attempt at this unusual mix. While prepping, the question loomed in my mind: What will the pudding do? Well...Its flavor disappears behind the cinnamon and nutmeg but ties itself into the butter, making a chewier cookie. The top and bottom crunch in your mouth, and your teeth sink into the oozing chocolate center. I added 1/2 cup of raisins instead of 3/4 cup of walnuts, but I didn't add enough! In all truth, this was a test run, and because walnuts put quite a hole in my wallet, I held off until the final run. The all-expensive and worthy walnuts will be added next time along with more raisins--ooh! maybe gooooolden raisins. Yes. Golden raisins and a little more of the oats into these chocolate chip oatmeal cookies.
