Butterscotch Chocolate Chip Cookies
Delightfully soft and chewy cookies that blend rich butterscotch flavors with chocolate in every bite.
Ingredients
For the Cookie Dough
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup packed brown sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 cups butterscotch chips High-quality recommended
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips High-quality recommended
Instructions
Preparation
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy.
- Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing until just combined.
- Fold in the butterscotch chips and semi-sweet chocolate chips.
Baking
- Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto ungreased baking sheets, leaving enough space between each cookie.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are golden brown. The centers may look soft but will firm up while cooling.
- Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to wire racks to cool completely.
Notes
Serve warm with vanilla ice cream for a delightful experience. Can also be packed as gifts or party favors. Drizzling with melted chocolate or butterscotch sauce enhances presentation.
