Time 1h40m

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 and 1/2 cups (188g) all-purpose flour (spoon & leveled)
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup (2 sticks; 230g) unsalted butter, softened to room temperature
1 cup (200g) packed light or dark brown sugar
1/2 cup (100g) granulated sugar
2 large eggs, at room temperature
1 Tablespoon unsulphured or dark molasses
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
3 cups (240g) old-fashioned whole rolled oats
2 cups (280g) butterscotch morsels

Steps:

  • Whisk the flour, cinnamon, baking soda, and salt together in a medium bowl. Set aside.
  • In a large bowl using a hand mixer or a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, beat the butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar together on medium-high speed until combined and creamy, about 2 minutes. Add the eggs, molasses, and vanilla and beat on high speed until combined, about 1 minute. Scrape down the sides and up the bottom of the bowl and beat again as needed to combine.
  • Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix on low until combined. With the mixer running on low speed, beat in the oats and butterscotch morsels. Dough will be thick and sticky. Cover and chill the dough for at least 45 minutes in the refrigerator (and up to 4 days). If chilling for longer than a few hours, allow to sit at room temperature for at least 30 minutes before rolling and baking because the dough will be quite hard.
  • Preheat oven to 350°F (177°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats. Set aside.
  • Scoop cookie dough (here's the cookie scoop I love), about 3 Tablespoons of dough per cookie, and place 4 inches apart on the baking sheets. Bake for 13-14 minutes or until lightly browned on the sides. The centers will look very soft.
  • Remove from the oven and allow cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely. While the cookies are still warm, I like to press a few more butterscotch morsels into the tops- this is only for looks!
  • Cookies stay fresh covered at room temperature for up to 1 week.

CLASSIC OATMEAL-RAISIN COOKIES



Classic Oatmeal-Raisin Cookies image

Full of nubby oats and plenty of sweet raisins, these lightly spiced cookies are pleasingly chewy in the center and crisp around the edges, with a hint of butterscotch from the dark brown sugar. They keep really well, so you can make them up to a week in advance and store them in an airtight container at room temperature. They're also great for mailing when a package of cookies is in order.

BUTTERSCOTCH OATMEAL RAISIN COOKIES

This is a recipe I got from a family friend then continued to tinker with. It makes a ton of cookies, but they go really fast.

Categories     Drop Cookies

Time 35m

Yield 60 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon allspice
1 cup butter (softened) or 1 cup margarine (softened)
1 1/2 cups sugar
2 eggs
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
3 cups old fashioned oats (I use Quaker Oats)
2 cups butterscotch chips
2 cups raisins

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375.
  • Combine: flour, baking soda, salt and spices in a small bowl.
  • Beat (cream together): butter, sugar, eggs and vanilla in a large mixing bowl.
  • Gradually beat in flour mixture.
  • Stir in oats, butterscotch chips and raisins.
  • Drop by rounded teaspoons.
  • onto cookie sheet.
  • Bake 7 to 8 minutes.
  • Cool 2 minutes on pan than transfer to rakes till cool.
  • Cook's Note in Response to Marg (CaymanDesigns)'s Review: I've found it's important to make sure you replace any of the add-ins you leave out (raisins or butterscotch chips) either with the same amount of another add-in or with an equal amount of extra oats. That will keep the cookie from being too "runny".

  • Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing the dough will make the cookies tough.
  • Chill the dough before baking: This will help the cookies to hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
  • Bake the cookies at the right temperature: The cookies should be baked in a preheated oven at the temperature specified in the recipe.
  • Don't overbake the cookies: Overbaking will make the cookies dry and crumbly.
  • Let the cookies cool completely before storing: This will help to prevent the cookies from becoming soft and chewy.
