Oatmeal Scotchies

Great Value

¾ cup sweet cream butter, softened

½ cup pure sugar

1 cup brown sugar

1 tsp. baking powder

¼ tsp. baking soda

½ tsp. ground cinnamon

½ tsp. salt

1 egg

1 tsp. pure vanilla extract

1 ¼ cups all-purpose flour

2 cups rolled oats

1 (11 oz.) package butterscotch baking chips

Store in airtight container at room temperature. Preheat oven to 375F.  Line cookie sheets with parchment paper. Cream butter with granulated sugar, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon and salt until smooth. Beat in egg and vanilla extract until combined. Gradually beat in flour, oats and butterscotch chips. 

Butterscotch is one of my favorite things.

Drop dough by rounded teaspoonfuls 2 inches apart on cookie sheets. Bake 10 to 12 minutes or until edges are golden. 

For my oven, that was a little long. Just watch them.

Cool on cookie sheet for 1 minute, then transfer to wire rack to finish cooling. 

They aren't the prettiest, but boy oh boy are they the tastiest.

My Rating: 4/5 "The only reason these aren't a 5/5 is that they don't come out looking exceptionally pretty. I think this could be fixed quite simply by just making them bigger. But they're incredibly, incredibly, amazingly tasty. I took them into one of my classes and a student walked out with two fistfuls because he liked them so much. They're that great."
