After sampling these tender cookies in a specialty store, I knew I had to duplicate them. My version has lots of toffee bits and butterscotch chips. I give away dozens as home-baked gifts. -Sandra McKenzie, Braham, MN

Overall, I thought these cookies were just okay. They weren't bad, but they weren't anything special either.

I had some trouble with the recipe. The dough was too sticky and I had to add more flour.

These cookies were a bit too sweet for my taste, but I still enjoyed them.

I'm not a big fan of butterscotch, but these cookies were surprisingly good. I'll definitely be making them again.
