Description
Soft and chewy cookies featuring a delightful blend of caramel and butterscotch flavors.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup packed brown sugar
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup butterscotch chips
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Cream together the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy—this should take about 2 to 3 minutes.
- Add the eggs, one at a time, ensuring each is fully incorporated before adding the next. Stir in the vanilla extract.
- Whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt in a separate bowl.
- Gradually incorporate the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Fold in the butterscotch chips until evenly distributed.
- Drop dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
- Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown but the centers remain soft. Allow cooling for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
Notes
For the best texture, measure flour accurately and rotate the baking sheet halfway through baking.
