Time 1h25m

Yield 36

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 cup butter, softened
¾ cup firmly packed light brown sugar
¾ cup white sugar
2 eggs
1 ½ teaspoons vanilla extract
1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
½ teaspoon salt
2 cups rolled oats, or as needed
1 cup butterscotch chips, or to taste

Steps:

  • Beat the butter, brown sugar, and white sugar with an electric mixer in a large bowl until smooth. Beat the first egg into the butter mixture until completely blended; beat the vanilla into the mixture with the last egg.
  • Whisk the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt together in a separate bowl. Beat the flour mixture into the butter mixture about 1/2 cup at a time. Fold the rolled oats and butterscotch chips into the resulting dough. If the dough isn't firm enough, mix in more rolled oats, about 1/4 cup at a time, until dough is of desired consistency.
  • Refrigerate the dough for 1 to 2 hours before baking.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Scoop up dough by heaping tablespoonful and roll into balls. Place cookies about 2 inches apart on baking sheets.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until very lightly browned and cookies are set in the middle, 10 to 12 minutes. Allow cookies to cool for about 5 minutes before removing from baking sheets to finish cooling on wire rack.
