Ingredients

Scale

1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
1 large egg (room temperature)
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/4 cup whole milk
1/2 cup heavy cream (for ganache)
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
3.4 oz instant vanilla pudding mix

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). In a bowl, cream together softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
Add the egg, vanilla extract, and milk; mix until well combined.
Gradually incorporate flour mixed with baking powder into the wet ingredients until just combined.
Scoop dough onto lined baking sheets, spacing them two inches apart. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to prevent spreading.
Bake for 10-12 minutes until edges are golden but centers remain soft. Cool completely on wire racks.
Prepare instant pudding according to package instructions while cookies cool.
For ganache, heat heavy cream until simmering, then pour over chocolate chips and stir until smooth.
Assemble by filling cookies with pudding and topping with ganache.
