How to Make Ed's Chicago Garbage Cookies Amaretto
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, cream together the butter and both sugars until light and fluffy.
- Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract and amaretto.
- In a separate bowl, combine the oats, flour, baking soda, and salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Stir in the butterscotch chips, chocolate chips (if using), raisins (if using), dates (if using), and any other desired mix-ins.
- Drop rounded tablespoons of cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving some space between each cookie.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown.
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
