ingredients
- 1 cup butter
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 1 cup white sugar
- 2 eggs, beaten
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1⁄2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1⁄2 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 cups flour (don't sift, packed down)
- 2 cups butterscotch chips (11 oz package)
- 1 1⁄2 cups rolled oats (Quaker's quick oats are fine)
directions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees, rack in the middle position.
- Melt the butter in a large microwave-safe bowl for about 90 seconds on high.
- Add the sugars and let it cool for a bit.
- Then add beaten eggs, baking powder, baking soda, salt and vanilla extract.
- Mix in the flour and then the butterscotch chips.
- Add the rolled oats and mix in thoroughly.
- Let the dough rest, uncovered for 10 minutes, allowing the butter to solidify.
- You can either drop by rounded tablespoons, or roll in to a ball with your hands, pushing them down a bit to prevent rolling, onto a greased cookie sheet, 12 to a sheet.
- Bake at 350 for 12 to 15 minutes.
- Cool on the cookie sheet for 2 minutes, then remove them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- These freeze well if you roll them in foil and put them in a freezer bag.
