CHEWY OATMEAL SCOTCHIES



Chewy Oatmeal Scotchies image

Thick and chewy oatmeal scotchies are one of my favorite kinds of cookie! This is my recipe for the best oatmeal scotchies and they turn out just slightly crispy on the outside and really chewy and gooey in the middle. Use dark brown sugar for the most chew!

Time 22m

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 stick (1/2 cup, 113 gr) unsalted butter, softened
3/4 cup (170 gr) brown sugar, lightly packed (preferably dark brown)
1 large egg, room temperature
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp kosher salt
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
1 1/4 cups (150 gr) all purpose flour (measured properly by spooning into measuring cups without packing
1 1/2 cups (150 gr) rolled oats
1 cup(175 gr) butterscotch chips

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 325 F (160 C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper and set aside.
  • In the bowl of a stand mixer fit with the paddle attachment, or a large bowl with a hand mixer, cream together the butter and brown sugar until light and fluffy. About 2 minutes on medium-high speed.
  • Mix in the egg and the vanilla until just incorporated.
  • Add the baking soda, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon. Mix until incorporated. Scrape down the bowl and mix until to make sure the ingredients are evenly distributed. Add the flour into the bowl and mix until just incorporated.
  • Add the rolled oats and butterscotch chips into the mixing bowl and mix until evenly distributed.
  • Scoop large rounded mounds of dough onto baking sheets, about 3 TBSP in size. I like to use this large cookie scoop. Place about 8 cookies per sheet pan. Top each mound with a few more butterscotch chips and a light sprinkling of kosher salt if desired.
  • Bake 1 sheet at a time at 325 for about 12 minutes, until the edges are set and the centers are still slightly underdone. Let the cookies sit on the baking sheets for about 5 minutes before removing to cool further.
  • Store cooled cookies in an airtight container for 3-4 days, or freeze for up to 3 months.

Time 1h40m

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 and 1/2 cups (188g) all-purpose flour (spoon & leveled)
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup (2 sticks; 230g) unsalted butter, softened to room temperature
1 cup (200g) packed light or dark brown sugar
1/2 cup (100g) granulated sugar
2 large eggs, at room temperature
1 Tablespoon unsulphured or dark molasses
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
3 cups (240g) old-fashioned whole rolled oats
2 cups (280g) butterscotch morsels

Steps:

  • Whisk the flour, cinnamon, baking soda, and salt together in a medium bowl. Set aside.
  • In a large bowl using a hand mixer or a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, beat the butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar together on medium-high speed until combined and creamy, about 2 minutes. Add the eggs, molasses, and vanilla and beat on high speed until combined, about 1 minute. Scrape down the sides and up the bottom of the bowl and beat again as needed to combine.
  • Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix on low until combined. With the mixer running on low speed, beat in the oats and butterscotch morsels. Dough will be thick and sticky. Cover and chill the dough for at least 45 minutes in the refrigerator (and up to 4 days). If chilling for longer than a few hours, allow to sit at room temperature for at least 30 minutes before rolling and baking because the dough will be quite hard.
  • Preheat oven to 350°F (177°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats. Set aside.
  • Scoop cookie dough (here's the cookie scoop I love), about 3 Tablespoons of dough per cookie, and place 4 inches apart on the baking sheets. Bake for 13-14 minutes or until lightly browned on the sides. The centers will look very soft.
  • Remove from the oven and allow cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely. While the cookies are still warm, I like to press a few more butterscotch morsels into the tops- this is only for looks!
  • Cookies stay fresh covered at room temperature for up to 1 week.
