Categories     Dessert

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 1/2 cups flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup butter (softened)
1 1/4 cups granulated sugar
1/4 cup packed brown sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla
1 large egg
2 cups of butterscotch baking chips

Steps:

  • Preheat your oven to 375 °F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • Whisk together the flour, baking soda and salt in a medium bowl. Set aside.
  • Cream together your butter and sugar until it's light and fluffy. Add in the egg and vanilla, mixing thoroughly. Beat in the flour, baking soda and salt until just combined.
  • When that is done, fold in the two cups of butterscotch baking chips by hand.
  • Roll a heaping tablespoon of cookie dough into a ball, 12 per cookie sheet.
  • Take a glass and using the bottom, flatten out each cookie. If the cookie sticks, start wetting the bottom of the glass with water, they will come right off.
  • Flatten each of them as much as you can. This is a dry dough , no sticky chewiness going on here- but it's just wet enough to make perfect little flat cookie patties.
  • Bake at 375 for 9-11 minutes, until golden brown. Cool on the sheets until firm then remove and cool on a wire rack completely.

Time 20m

Yield 50 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 7

3/4 cup unsalted butter, at room temperature
1/2 cup dark brown sugar
3 egg whites, from Grade A large eggs
Pinch of kosher salt
1 1/4 cups cake flour
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 cup sifted granulated sugar (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
  • With an electric mixer, beat the butter until creamy. Add the brown sugar and beat until well combined and fluffy.
  • Add the egg whites and salt and beat just until slightly blended. Add the flour and blend on low speed until smooth. Stir in the vanilla.
  • Drop by the teaspoonful on an ungreased cookie sheet, leaving two inches between cookies. (Alternatively, squeeze onto cookie sheets with a pastry bag fitted with a large, plain tip - the easiest, quickest way.) Bake, one sheet at a time, for five to seven minutes, until the edges are golden brown. Bake in about five batches of 10 cookies each.
  • With a spatula, remove the cookies to a wire rack to cool.
  • If desired, make a caramel by slowly cooking the sugar - covered until dissolved - to a golden brown. Remove the pan from heat and dip the outside of the pan in cold water to stop cooking. Dip half of each cookie into the syrup.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the taste of your cookies. Look for butter that is at least 82% butterfat, and use real vanilla extract instead of imitation.
  • Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing will make the cookies tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Chill the dough before baking. This will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
  • Bake the cookies at the right temperature. The ideal temperature for baking butterscotch cookies is 350 degrees Fahrenheit. If you bake them at a higher temperature, they will brown too quickly and the centers will be undercooked.
  • Let the cookies cool completely before storing them. This will help them keep their shape and prevent them from becoming too soft.

Conclusion:

Butterscotch cookies are a classic treat that are perfect for any occasion. They are easy to make and can be enjoyed by people of all ages. With a few simple tips, you can make delicious butterscotch cookies that will be the hit of your next party or gathering.
