Tips:

Use high-quality chocolate. The better the chocolate, the better your cookies will taste. Look for chocolate with a cocoa content of at least 60%.
Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing will make the cookies tough. Mix the dough just until the ingredients are combined.
Chill the dough before baking. Chilling the dough will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
Bake the cookies at a high temperature. This will help them develop a crispy exterior and a chewy interior.
Let the cookies cool completely before storing them. This will help them keep their shape and prevent them from becoming too soft.

Conclusion:

Mocha butterscotch cookies are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that are perfect for any occasion. They are sure to be a hit with your friends and family. So next time you're looking for a sweet treat, give these cookies a try. You won't be disappointed!
