Chocolate Chip Chocolate Syrup Brownies

Dark Chocolate Mocha Pudding Cookies
These cookies were my first try at using instant pudding mix in a cookie. I’ve heard that adding pudding mix to cookie dough keeps the cookies soft, but I wasn’t crazy about the idea of adding pudding mix with artificial flavors, dyes, and other things.
