How to Make Oatmeal Butterscotch Chip Cookies

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) softened unsalted butter, ¾ cup granulated sugar, and ¾ cup packed brown sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Beat in 2 large eggs and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract until well combined.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together 3 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, and ½ teaspoon salt.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  6. Stir in 3 cups rolled oats and 2 cups butterscotch chips.
  7. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  8. Drop rounded tablespoons of cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving 2 inches between each cookie.
  9. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers are set. (Keep a close eye on them after 10 minutes!)
  10. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 1 minute before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
