Yield Makes about 25 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 6

3/4 cup butterscotch chips
3/4 cup creamy no-stir peanut butter
1 cup quick-cooking oats
1 1/4 cups unsweetened shredded coconut, divided
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
2 ounces dark chocolate (optional)

Steps:

  • Heat butterscotch chips and peanut butter in a medium heatproof bowl set over a medium pot of barely simmering water (bottom of bowl should not touch water), stirring occasionally, or in short bursts in the microwave, stirring in between bursts, until butterscotch is melted and smooth. Add oats, 1 cup coconut, and salt; stir gently to combine.
  • Spoon mixture by the tablespoonful onto a parchment-lined sheet tray. Gently press balls in the center to flatten. Chill until set, about 10 minutes.
  • Heat chocolate, if using, in a medium heatproof bowl set over a medium pot of barely simmering water (bottom of bowl should not touch water), stirring occasionally, or in short bursts in the microwave, stirring in between bursts, until chocolate is melted and smooth. Drizzle cooled cookies with chocolate, top with remaining 1/4 cup coconut, and chill until set, about 5 minutes, before serving.
  • Do Ahead
  • Cookies can be made 5 days ahead. Store in an airtight container and chill.

I love how versatile these cookies are. You can add different nuts, dried fruits, or chocolate chips to change up the flavor.

I'm allergic to coconut, so I made these cookies without it. They were still delicious!

I had trouble finding butterscotch chips, so I used chocolate chips instead. They turned out great!

These cookies are a bit too sweet for my taste, but they're still pretty good.

I'm not a big fan of coconut, but I really enjoyed these cookies. The butterscotch flavor is really strong and it pairs perfectly with the coconut.
