These cookies were a bit too sweet for my taste, but my kids loved them. They were also a bit dry, but I think that was because I overbaked them.

These cookies were a bit too dry for my taste, but they still had a nice butterscotch flavor. I think I might try adding a little bit of extra butter next time.

These cookies were a disappointment. They were dry and crumbly, and the butterscotch flavor was barely noticeable. I would not recommend this recipe.
