Butterscotch Chocolate Chip Cookies

Healthy Fact of the Day

Using a mix of granulated and brown sugar creates the perfect chewy texture while adding molasses notes that complement the butterscotch. Let cookies cool on the baking sheet briefly to maintain their soft centers.

These Butterscotch Chocolate Chip Cookies elevate your Sweet Sundae with their irresistible combination of rich chocolate and golden butterscotch chips. They bake up with perfectly chewy centers and lightly crisp edges, delivering that classic homemade cookie experience that pairs beautifully with a cold glass of milk or your afternoon coffee.

If you love double-chip cookies, you’ll also enjoy our Peanut Butter Blossom Cookies with their rich peanut butter base and chocolate kiss topping. For another indulgent treat with similar comfort vibes, try the No-Bake Chocolate Eclair Cake—it brings that same satisfying sweetness in a completely different format.

    Ingredients

    • 1 cup unsalted butter

    • 0.75 cup granulated sugar

    • 0.75 cup brown sugar

    • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

    • 2 large eggs

    • 2.25 cups all-purpose flour

    • 1 teaspoon baking soda

    • 0.5 teaspoon salt

    • 1.5 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips

    • 1 cup butterscotch chips

    Directions

    • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
    • In a large bowl, cream together the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
    • Add the vanilla extract and eggs to the creamed mixture, mixing well after each addition until fully incorporated.
    • In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until combined.
    • Fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips and butterscotch chips, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
    • Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart to allow room for spreading.
    • Bake in the preheated oven for 9-11 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown. The centers may appear slightly underbaked.
    • Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

    Tip of the Day

    “Always let your meat rest before slicing.”

    Whether you're roasting a chicken, grilling steak, or baking pork tenderloin, letting cooked meat rest for 5–10 minutes before slicing allows the juices to redistribute evenly. This simple step keeps your meat juicy and tender, ensuring every bite is flavorful and moist. Bonus: It gives you a moment to plate your sides or garnish for a perfect presentation!

    A Line Cook’s Guide to Actually Flavorful Salad Dressing

    Eating salad with a fat-containing dressing significantly increases the absorption of fat-soluble vitamins — A, D, E, and K — as well as carotenoids like beta-carotene and lycopene found in vegetables. A completely fat-free dressing, despite seeming like the healthier choice, can actually reduce the nutritional value of the salad it’s on.

    Braised Catalina Chicken

    Chicken thighs deliver a generous dose of protein, iron, and zinc alongside more natural fat than chicken breast—which means they stay moist and satisfying through the long bake without drying out. The whole berry cranberry sauce contributes a small but meaningful dose of antioxidants and vitamin C, making this comforting pantry dinner a more nutritionally well-rounded choice than it might first appear.

    Pasta cooked al dente has a meaningfully lower glycemic index than fully cooked or overcooked pasta, meaning it causes a slower, more gradual rise in blood sugar.
