Ingredients
- 1/2 cup butter, softened
- 2 large eggs
- 3.4 oz pistachio instant pudding mix
- 1 package sugar cookie mix (approximately 15.3 oz)
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) to ensure it reaches the perfect temperature by the time your dough is ready.
- Mix Wet Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the softened butter, eggs, and pistachio instant pudding mix. Use an electric mixer to blend them together until the mixture is smooth and uniform.
- Add Cookie Mix: Gradually add the sugar cookie mix to the bowl. Continue mixing with the electric mixer until the dough becomes sticky and well combined.
- Prepare Baking Sheet: Grease a 10 x 15-inch baking sheet to prevent sticking. Then evenly spread the sticky dough across the surface, smoothing the top as best as possible.
- Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 10–12 minutes. Watch for golden edges and a lightly browned top to indicate the bars are done.
- Cool and Serve: Remove the baking sheet from the oven and allow the cookie bars to cool completely. Once cooled, slice into bars and serve.
Notes
- Make sure the butter is properly softened for easier mixing.
- You can substitute any flavor of instant pudding mix for different variations.
- Do not overbake; bars should be slightly soft in the center when removed from the oven.
- Store bars in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or refrigerate for longer freshness.
