Oatmeal Butterscotch Cookies
Old Fashioned oatmeal butterscotch cookies are buttery, sweet treats that are easy to make and perfect for every occasion!
Ingredients
- 1 cup butter softened
- 1 cup brown sugar packed
- 1/2 cup white sugar
- 2 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 3 cups rolled oats
- 1 ⅔ cups butterscotch chips
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F. Line two pans with parchment paper.
- Beat butter, white sugar, and brown sugar together in a large bowl with an electric mixer or stand mixer until light and fluffy.
- Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in vanilla.
- Stir together flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt in a separate bowl. Gradually add flour mixture to butter mixture and mix until blended.
- Mix in oats and butterscotch chips until combined.
- Form the dough into balls around 1 inch wide and place onto the prepared baking sheets 2 inches apart. Press the cookies down with a fork, or wet the bottom of a drinking glass and press the cookies into an even layer. This helps them spread out and cook evenly.
- Bake in the preheated oven until the edges begin to brown, 8 to 10 minutes.
- Remove and cool completely on baking sheets as they are delicate when hot.
Notes
- These cookies bake better when pressed down with a fork or glass bottom.
- You can also switch out the baking chips for any flavor that you enjoy!
