Level: Easy

These cookies are so easy, and they are a little different, so they are sure to be a crowd pleaser. My mom refers to them as “healthy” cookies because they have oats in them. Listen, I’m not going to correct her!

What you’ll need…

1 1/2 C Flour
1 tsp Baking Soda
1/2 tsp Salt
1/2 tsp Cinnamon
1 C Butter (2 sticks)
3/4 C Sugar
3/4 C Packed Brown Sugar
2 Eggs 
1 tsp Vanilla
3 C Oats (I like old fashioned rolled oats)
1 12oz bag Butterscotch Chips

Get Cooking…

Preheat oven to 375F.

In a large bowl, sift together the flour, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon. Set aside.

In a stand mixer, cream together the butter and sugars. Once homogenous, add in the eggs one at a time. After eggs are fully incorporated, add in vanilla.

Slowly add in the dry ingredients to mixer with the wet ingredients. When a Nice dough is formed, add in the oats and butterscotch chips.

In large scoopfuls, drop the dough onto parchment lined baking sheets. Make sure to leave a little room for the cookies to spread.

Bake at 375F for 7-8 minutes, or until edges are golden.
