I have a serious sweet tooth and I’m always on the lookout for new cookie recipes. Some of my favorite cookies include chocolate chip and oatmeal scotchies, so I wondered how I could make a cookie that would combine the best of both worlds. I thought to take the base of the chocolate chip cookie recipe and add peanut butter and butterscotch chips!

To Make Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Butterscotch Cookies You Will Need:

• Butter – This recipe calls for salted butter, softened at room temperature.
• Sugar – You will need brown sugar & white sugar for this recipe. Light or Dark brown sugar can be used.
• Peanut Butter – Creamy peanut butter adds a ton of flavor to these cookies.
• Eggs – Eggs bind all the ingredients together.
• Vanilla Extract -To add that perfect vanilla flavor to the cookie base.
• Flour – Make sure to use all purpose flour and not self rising. I like to use Gold Medal.

How To Make Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Butterscotch Cookies:

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. In a stand mixer or a large mixing bowl cream the butter until it is soft and smooth. Add brown sugar & white sugar and combine well, scraping the sides and bottom of the bowl as the mixture will run up the sides.
3. Add creamy peanut butter and mix well.
4. Add eggs and vanilla extract making sure to scrape the sides and bottom of the bowl to mix well.
5. In a separate bowl combine your dry ingredients (flour, salt, baking soda) an mix until well combined.
6. Add dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing slowly to incorporate. Scrape the sides and bottom of the bowl to mix well.
7. Add Chocolate chips and butterscotch chips making sure not to overmix.
8. Using a cookie scoop add the dough to the prepared baking sheet about 2 inches apart.
9. Bake cookies in preheated oven for 11 minutes, cookies will look puffy when you take them out but they will flatten as they cool.
10. Let cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before moving to a cooling rack.
11. I like to enjoy these cookies when they are warm and super ooey-gooey! If you prefer a more chewy cookie that isn’t gooey let these cool at least 15 minutes before enjoying.

Notes

• If you don’t want your cookies to be super duper sweet cut down the chocolate chips & butterscotch chips from 2 cups each to 1 1/4 cups or semi-sweet chocolate chips can be substituted with dark chocolate chips.
• Peanut Butter can easily be left out of this recipe for those with allergies and will still be super delicious!
• This makes a lot of cookies (~34). This recipe can easily be halved or quartered.
