Chewy oatmeal butterscotch cookies made with butterscotch chips, butterscotch hard candy, and butterscotch flavoring.
128 grams all purpose flour (1 cup)
3/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
113 grams unsalted butter, softened (1/2 cup/1 stick)
150 grams dark brown sugar (3/4 cup)
50 grams granulated sugar (1/4 cup)
1 large egg, at room temperature
20 grams molasses or black treacle (1 tablespoon)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon butterscotch flavor oil
150 grams rolled oats (1 1/2 cups)
150 grams butterscotch chips (3/4 cup), plus more to decorate
55 grams crushed butterscotch candy (1/4 cup, or about 10 candies)
In a medium bowl, whisk together all purpose flour, baking soda, and kosher salt.
In a separate bowl or the bowl of a stand mixer, beat butter on medium-high speed until soft and fluffy.
Add the brown sugar and granulated sugar and mix until creamy.
Mix in the egg, molasses, vanilla extract, and butterscotch flavoring.
Add the dry ingredients and mix until just barely combined, then stir in the rolled oats.
Fold in the butterscotch chips and crushed butterscotch candies.
Cover and refrigerate at least 1 hour, or overnight.
Preheat oven to 375° F / 190° C. Line a half-sheet rimmed baking tray with parchment or a silicone baking mat.
With a 1 1/2-inch cookie scoop, portion dough into golf ball-sized mounds. Roll into balls and place 2 inches apart on prepared tray.
Press a few additional butterscotch chips into the top of each ball.
Bake 10-12 minutes, or until lightly golden brown around the edges, but still soft in the middle. Do not overbake.
With a round metal cutter, quickly reshape each cookie until perfectly round.
Repeat with remaining cookie dough. Allow cookies to cool on completely on tray.
Store butterscotch cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
