Birthday Cake White Chocolate Pudding Cookies

Birthday Cake White Chocolate Pudding Cookies

Each cookie has two scoops, one on top of the other, leaving a higher cookie with a cakey center.

To continue the sprinkle theme this week, I have a recipe for some sweet and festive white chocolate pudding cookies. These are special in the fact that I added one cup of butter yellow cake mix to the batter along with one cup of rainbow sprinkles. The addition of almond extract along with the vanilla intensifies the cake-like taste.
An extra trick to making these cookies unique is in how you drop the dough onto the cookie sheet. I used a 1&1/2 Tablespoon scoop and placed one scoop on top of the other, leaving these cookies higher than your average pudding chip cookie. The edges come out nicely golden, while the centers are soft and cakey.
