Oatmeal Scotchies

There's no big surprise that I love to bake, and since I don't do chocolate, butterscotch chips have become my major addiction. They're absolutely delicious and taste great with everything! 


Summer is approaching and that means countless barbecues, dinner parties and picnics. Which means a new cookie recipe is in order. I found this recipe for these delicious oatmeal scotchies from the NestlĂ© website, and with a little tweaking this recipe turned out phenomenally! Mark loved it so much that he couldn't stop eating them and all the cookies disappeared that very day. 

Ingredients: 
1¼ cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon salt
1 cup butter or margarine
¾ cup granulated sugar
¾ cup packed brown sugar
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup old fashioned oats
1 11oz. package  NestlĂ© Tollhouse Butterscotch Chips


Directions: 
1. Preheat oven to 375°.


2. Combine flour, baking soda, salt and cinnamon in small bowl. Beat butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar, eggs and vanilla extract in large mixer bowl. Gradually beat in flour mixture. Stir in oats and morsels. Drop by rounded tablespoon onto ungreased baking sheets.
3. Bake for 7 to 8 minutes for chewy cookies or 9 to 10 minutes for crisp cookies. Cool on baking sheets for 2 minutes; remove to wire racks to cool completely.




These cookies are absolutely scrumptious and perfect for every occasion. They go great with everything from a hot cup of coffee to a nice, cold glass of milk. Try them, you won't be disappointed!
