Butterscotch Cookies With Burnt Butter Icing image

My grandmother ALWAYS had these cookies waiting when we came to visit. One bite and I am back in her kitchen. The icing is great on other things too...brownies, cake, graham crackers... it all tastes great!

These cookies are the perfect balance of chewy and crispy. They're also not too sweet, which I appreciate.

I had some trouble getting the cookies to brown evenly. I think I might have needed to bake them for a few minutes longer.

These cookies are a bit too sweet for my taste, but they're still pretty good. I think I'll try making them with less sugar next time.

These cookies are a bit too rich for my taste, but they're still pretty good. I think I'll try making them with a lighter frosting next time.
