Butterscotch Chocolate Chip Cookies

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 ½ cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1/4 ¼ cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 ½ cup brown sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 3/4 ¾ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 ½ cup chopped butterscotch candies
  • 1/2 ½ cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350º. Line a baking sheet with parchment or a Silpat and set aside. Whisk together flour, baking soda and salt in a medium bowl. Set aside.

In the bowl of stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, beat butter and sugars together on medium speed until smooth. Add egg, beat well. Add the vanilla and mix well. Scrape down the sides and bottom of the bowl as needed.

Gradually add dry ingredients to wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined. Using a rubber spatula, stir in butterscotch pieces and chocolate chips. Using a cookie scoop, place dough onto prepared pan, spacing about an inch or so apart. Bake for 12-14 minutes, or until edges are golden brown. Allow to cool on baking sheet for 5 minutes, then cool completely on a wire rack.
