Chocolate Butterscotch Chip Cookies Ingredients
Here’s what you need to make these chocolate butterscotch chip cookies:
- 1/2 cup salted butter, softened
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1 egg
- 1 tsp vanilla
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1 1/2 cup flour
- 1 tsp milk
- 1/2 cup chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup butterscotch chips
How to make these butterscotch chip cookies
Before you make the chocolate chip and butterscotch chip cookies, pre-heat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Then, cream the softened butter and sugar in a mixer (or by hand…but the mixer is so much easier).
Then, add egg, milk and vanilla and mix until smooth. Next, add baking soda and flour (I like to add the baking soda first so it is mixed throughout, then the flour). Mix in the flour 1/2 cup at a time, and make sure to use a rubber spatula to get all the flour stuck to the bowl.
Finally, you will add in the chocolate chips and butterscotch chips to the dough using a rubber spatula. You can use a mixer to mix the chocolate chips and butterscotch chips, but some of them may get a little crushed up.
The next thing you will do is roll the chocolate chip and butterscotch chip cookies dough into 1-inch balls and place them on a cookie sheet with parchment paper.
Then, smash the balls down just a little bit so the cookies spread out evenly when cooked (see pictures). The palm of your hand or a spatula will work just fine!
Finally, you will bake the chocolate chip and butterscotch chip cookies for 10 minutes, rotating the cookie sheet half-way through. This way they cook evenly.
Then, transfer them to a cooling rack so they will cool faster, which means you can enjoy them faster!
The recipe makes roughly 18 delicious chocolate chip and butterscotch chip cookies (give or take a few depending on how big you decide to make them).
I hope you enjoyed these chocolate chip and butterscotch chip cookies. They are quite easy to make, but extremely delicious!
