OATMEAL BUTTERSCOTCH TOFFEE-CRISP COOKIES
These cookies are to die for!! I promise and so do all my friends, family and co-workers. I was looking for a thin crispy oatmeal cookie. I found a number of nice recipes and took ideas from many of them. On the third attempt, this is the recipe I came up with. Special notes, you MUST use parchment paper to bake the cookies on. If you don't they will stick to the pan and break (even if you grease the pan). The batter gets thicker as you add ingredients. I add the rice cereal last, so that they are crushed as little as possible. I have tried using more and less flour. Less flour and the cookies don't form. More flour and they don't get crispy. A special thanks to PanNan, who's Crispy Coconut-Oatmeal Cookies gave me the recipe's basic foundation.

Steps:
- Beat butter and sugars at medium speed with an electric mixer until blended; add eggs, vanilla and almond extract, beating well.
- In a separate bowl, combine flour, baking soda, salt and nutmeg; add to butter mixture, mixing well.
- Stir in oats.
- Stir in toffee bar pieces (don't use the "toffee dust" that comes from crushing the bars, just the small pieces).
- Mix in butterscotch chips. The batter will be very thick at this point.
- Gently but thouroughly mix in rice cereal.
- Shape into 1-inch balls and place on a cookie sheet covered in parchment paper. (You do not need to flatten the cookies, they spread on their own). I only place 6 cookies on each cookie sheet.
- Bake at 350° for 12 minutes.
- Gently slide the cookies off of the parchment paper onto wire racks to cool.

Steps:
- 1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Line baking sheets with parchment paper or Silpat mat/baking liner; set aside.
- 2. With electric mixer, cream butter and both sugars until fluffy. Beat in eggs and vanilla until well combined.
- 3. In a medium-size mixing bowl, combine flour, oats, baking soda and salt. Slowly add the flour mixture to the creamed butter, mixing just until flour is well incorporated into cookie dough. Stir in the butterscotch chips and toffee bits until well blended. Chill dough about 20 minutes (chilling is optional - it helps cookies from spreading too much during baking).
- 4. With a medium cookie scoop, drop dough onto prepared baking sheets about 1 1/2 to 2 inches apart. Bake 9 to 10 minutes or until lightly golden. Let cool 5 minutes on baking sheet before transferring cookies to a cooling rack.
