Ingredients

• 1 cup unsalted butter
• 0.75 cup granulated sugar
• 0.75 cup light brown sugar, packed
• 2 large eggs
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1.75 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 3 cups quick-cooking oats
• 1.75 cups butterscotch chips

Directions

Step 1

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

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, beat together the unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and light brown sugar until the mixture is creamy and smooth, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 3

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

Step 4

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

Step 5

Gradually add the dry ingredient mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.

Step 6

Stir in the quick-cooking oats and butterscotch chips until evenly distributed throughout the dough.

Step 7

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

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. The centers may still look slightly underbaked, but they will firm up as they cool.

Step 9

Remove the baking sheets from the oven and allow the cookies to cool on the sheets for 5 minutes. Then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 10

Serve and enjoy your delicious, chewy Oatmeal Scotchies!
