Ingredients
-
1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
-
3/4 cup granulated sugar
-
3/4 cup packed brown sugar
-
2 large eggs
-
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
-
2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
-
1 teaspoon baking soda
-
1/2 teaspoon salt
-
1 cup butterscotch chips
-
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
-
Preheat the Oven:
-
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
-
-
Mix the Wet Ingredients:
-
In a large bowl, beat together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar using an electric mixer until light and fluffy. This should take about 2-3 minutes.
-
Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
-
-
Combine the Dry Ingredients:
-
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.
-
-
Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients:
-
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing just until combined. Be careful not to overmix.
-
-
Add the Chips:
-
Stir in the butterscotch chips and chocolate chips until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
-
-
Scoop the Dough:
-
Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop rounded balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
-
-
Bake the Cookies:
-
Bake in the preheated oven for 9-11 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown but the centers are still soft. They will firm up as they cool.
-
-
Cool and Serve:
-
Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for 2 minutes before transferring them to wire racks to cool completely. Enjoy!
-
Notes
-
If you prefer a chewier cookie, slightly underbake them and let them cool on the baking sheet.
-
You can use milk chocolate chips in place of semi-sweet chocolate chips for a sweeter flavor.
-
For an extra touch, try sprinkling a little sea salt on top of the cookies before baking for a sweet-salty contrast.
-
The dough can be chilled for up to 24 hours before baking if you want to make it ahead of time.
