Oatmeal Craisin Butterscotch Chip Cookies


I know, I know, this story is getting old.  I've been meaning to make this recipe forever...blahty blahty blah... So let's cut to the chase.  I made it today.  I was totally skeptical about these cookies.  I mean cranberries and butterscotch in an  oatmeal cookie?  Separately, sure, but together?  It totally works in a weird kind of way.  I can't explain it, but there you go!

Oatmeal Craisin Butterscotch Chip Cookies

1/2 cup (1 stick) butter, partially melted
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla
3/4 cup all purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
3/4 cup old fashioned oats
3/4 cup quick oats
1 cup butterscotch chips
1/2 cup Craisins

Preheat the oven to 350F.  Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. 

Place the butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar in a large bowl, and beat until smooth.  Add the egg and vanilla and beat until well blended.  Add the flour, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon, and beat until just combined.  Beat in the old fashioned oats, quick oats, butterscotch chips, and craisins until evenly distributed.

Scoop the dough into tablespoon size balls and place on the prepared baking sheet.  Bake for about 11 minutes, or until the tops are just set.  Remove from the oven and let cool on the pan for several minutes.  Transfer cookies to a cooling rack to cool completely.  Makes about 24 cookies.

Enjoy!  -Cardamommy
