Butterscotch Chip Oat Cookies

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup butter
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon cold water
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup quick oats
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup butterscotch chips

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.

1. Cream the butter and sugars together. Add the egg and beat until light and fluffy. Add the vanilla and water.

2. In another bowl, stir the flour, oats, baking soda, baking powder, and salt together. Add the flour mixture to the creamed mixture and beat until well combined.

3. Add the butterscotch chips. Spoon the dough in walnut-sized mounds onto ungreased cookie sheets.

4. Bake for 9 minutes or until the cookies are light brown. Let them sit for a minute or two on the pan and then remove them to a wire rack to cool.

Yield: four to five dozen cookies.
