Sharon's Oatmeal Scotchy Recipe

Sharon's Oatmeal Scotchy Cookie Recipe

Sharon borrowed the recipe from the back of the Nestle wrapper and riffed on it a bit.

1 - 1/4 cups flour

1 tsp baking soda

1/2 tsp cinnamon

1/2 tsp salt

mix dry ingredients in a small bowl.

1 cup butter, softened
3/4 cup sugar
3/4 cup brown sugar
2 large eggs
1 tsp vanilla

Beat wet ingredients together until smooth. Gradually beat in flour mixture.

3 cups quick or old fashioned oats
1 2/3 cups butterscotch chips
1/2 cup raisins or walnuts, if desired.

Stir in oats and then add chips/raisins or nuts.

Preheat oven to 375 degrees.

Making these cookies is more enjoyable with the Oxo Medium Cookie Scoop. It's easier and less messy than using your hands or two spoons, and the consistent size and shape makes for more uniformly cooked cookies.

We're also quite fond of our Silpat Baking Sheets. This is a silcone pan liner that makes for very uniform cookies with easy cleanup. We've since bought some cheaper ones from Costco. They're almost as good, but they seem to go through a shedding / peeling cycle when they're brand new.

Bake for 7-10 minutes. Makes 2 dozen cookies.

Pan cookie variation - grease 15 x 10 inch jelly roll pan. Spread dough in pan and bake for 18-22 minutes or until golden brown.
