Instructions
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
- Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until well combined.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
- Stir in the butterscotch syrup and heavy cream until the dough comes together. If desired, fold in the butterscotch chips for added flavor and texture. Then, refrigerate the dough for 1 hour.
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Roll the dough into 1 inch balls. Place on the prepared baking sheet, leaving at least 3 inches between each cookie.
- Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for about 10 to 12 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden brown.
- Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Once fully cooled, make the butterscotch buttercream. Add the softened butter to a stand mixer. Beat until fluffy.
- Then, add in the melted butterscotch chips. Beat until combined.
- Sift in the powdered sugar and salt. Then, add in the extracts. Stir until light and fluffy.
- Finally, frost each cookie once completely cooled!
Notes
- I tested this recipe using both gluten free flour and all purpose flour. Both work well.
- For gluten free flour, I always use King Arthur Flour or Bob’s Red Mill.
- The cookie dough will be wet and sticky before chilling. It is imperative to chill the dough.
- Space the cookie dough balls out on the parchment lined baking sheet. These do spread while baking.
- Only frost the cookies once they are completely cooled down.
- Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
- Freeze for 3 months.
