I recently came across a wonderful butterscotch cookie recipe that calls for melting the butterscotch chips and adding it to the cookie dough. The recipe also reminds me of a Snickerdoodle cookie and is soft and chewy with a rich butterscotch taste. I hope you love it. Stop by the salon this month and try one before they are all gone! Ingredients: 2 C butter, softened at room temperature 1 package butterscotch chips (I use Nestle) 2 C powdered sugar 1 C white granulated sugar 2 large eggs 2 tsp. vanilla 1 tsp. baking soda 1 tsp. cream of tarter (this is very important!) 1 tsp. salt 4 1/2 C flour 1/2 cup granulated sugar - reserved for rolling the cookie dough before putting on the cookie sheet Directions:
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a baking sheets with parchment paper. Melt the butter and butterscotch chips in a microwave safe bowl for 1 minute, then stir and microwave for 30 second intervals until the chips are completely melted. Stir the mixture until all lumps are gone. When the mixture is cooled, add it to your mixing bowl with the powdered sugar, granulated sugar, eggs and vanilla mixing until complete incorporated. Add the baking soda, cream of tarter and salt to your flour and stir together. Add the dry ingredients to the sugar mixture about 1 cup at a time until all the dry ingredients are incorporated. Once the dough has been prepared, scoop 1-2 teaspoons of the dough (about the size of a walnut), roll in a ball and roll in the reserved sugar placing the cookies on a prepared cookie sheet about 2 inches apart. Flatten slightly with the palm of your hand. Bake for 9 to 11 minutes depending on your oven. Cool for about 1 minute on the pan before removing them to a cooling rack. Makes about 5 dozen cookies.
