Right, so remember how I made those butterscotch pudding cookies earlier? And I altered the recipe because one bag of chips was way too much? ...I might have purposefully chosen this recipe to use those up. Well, also because my mother was hinting that she wanted these, because she loves cookies with oatmeal. Like, adores. So Mom, here's to you!
The ingredients:
- 1 1/4 cups flour
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp cinnamon
- 1 cup butter, softened
- 3/4 cup white sugar
- 3/4 cup brown sugar, packed down
- 2 eggs
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 3 cups quick of "old-fashioned" oats
- 1/2 bag (or 1 cup) butterscotch chips
How to make them:
- Preheat your oven to 375 degrees.
- Place the flour, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon into a medium bowl and mix together until combined. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, cream together the butter, sugars, eggs, and vanilla.
- Slowly mix in the flour. Once combined, fold in the oats and butterscotch chips.
- Drop tablespoonfuls of the dough onto ungreased baking sheets, and bake for 7 to 8 minutes. Let them cool on the sheet for a few minutes for moving them to the wire racks.
