Pistachio Wedding Cookies

Pistachio Wedding Cookies

1 c butter, softened
1 c powdered sugar
2 tsp vanilla
1 3/4 c flour
3.4 oz box of pistachio (or any flavor) instant pudding mix
1/2 tsp salt

Cream butter, beat in 1/2 c sugar until fluffy.  Add vanilla.  In a separate bowl combine flour, pudding mix & salt.  Slowly add flour mix to wet ingredients until well mixed.  Divide dough in half.  Refrigerate for 1 hour.  Preheat oven to 350 degrees.  Prepare cookie sheet with Pam, or other non-stick spray.  Make teaspoon size balls.  Place onto cookie sheets.  Press down slightly.  Bake 9-10 minutes.  Remove and let cook down for 5 minutes.  Toss in sugar.  Enjoy.

I found this recipe on www.motherthyme.com.  My family loved these cookies so much.  I think next time I am going to try using a little bit of coconut extract and a box of coconut pudding.  You could use any sort of instant pudding, chocolate, vanilla, banana cream, etc.  The sky is the limit.
