Instructions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. I was using a new non stick baking sheet today, but in most cases I use parchment paper over my seasoned baking sheets.
Place butter and sugars into a large mixing bowl or stand mixer. Beat until creamy and smooth. Stir in eggs, vanilla and almond extract until well combined then stir in flour, pudding mix, salt, baking soda and chocolate chips until dough forms. Scoop dough onto baking sheet, about 1 inch apart. Bake for 11-12 minutes and remove from oven. Let cool completely.
Microwave candy melts until smooth. With spoon, spoon white chocolate over half of each cookie and place candy eye balls on top. Let set up before serving. Takes about 15 minutes. Serve room temperature.
