This is a very simple recipe for butterscotch and oatmeal cookies. The recipe is a classic and the combination of chewy oat and flavorful butterscotch is just so good.
These cookies are awesome and so simple to make them…I pretty much follow the recipe from here, just cut down the sugar since the butterscotch chips are pretty sweet. The oat gives a slightly chewy texture…so good!
I hope you have a chance to try them…
