How to Make It
Step 1: Get Ready
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Set this aside.
Step 2: Cream & Mix
In a large bowl, beat the softened butter with both granulated sugar and brown sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until well combined. Slowly add the dry flour mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Fold in the butterscotch and chocolate chips.
Step 3: Bake
Drop rounded spoonfuls of dough onto your prepared baking sheets. Bake for 9-11 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers are set. Let cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before moving to a wire rack.
📝 Final Note
For best results, let the cookies cool completely. This helps them set and become perfectly chewy.
