Ingredients

Servings
  • ½ cup salted butter sliced
  • 1 cup dark brown sugar packed
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour

  8. Remove from the oven and allow to cool on the cookie sheet for 10 minutes.
  9. While the cookies are hot, gently push 3 to 4 butterscotch chips on the top of the cookies.
  10. Place on a paper towel or cooling rack until cooled completely.
  11. Store in an airtight container at room temperature.
