Notes
Nutrition information is an estimate only.TIPS
Food coloring is optional, as the pudding mix will give the cookies a light green color on its own. If using food coloring, start with one drop.
If dough feels warm, chill the cookie dough balls on baking sheet in the freezer for 10-20 minutes before baking so they will not spread out too much in the oven.
