Ingredients

• 1 cup Unsalted butter
• 0.75 cup Granulated sugar
• 0.75 cup Brown sugar
• 2 large Egg
• 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
• 2.5 cups All-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon Baking soda
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 2 cups Butterscotch chips

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, cream the unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar together with a hand mixer or stand mixer until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 3

Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.

Step 4

In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt.

Step 5

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined. Do not overmix.

Step 6

Fold in the butterscotch chips using a spatula, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.

Step 7

Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop rounded spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 9-11 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown but the centers still appear soft.

Step 9

Remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheets for 3-5 minutes before transferring to wire racks to cool completely.

Step 10

Store cooled cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week. Enjoy!
