INSTRUCTIONS
list of 8 items
1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350¡ãF (175¡ãC). Line baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
3. Cream Butter and Sugars: In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar together until light and fluffy, about
2-3 minutes.
4. Add Pudding Mix, Eggs, and Vanilla: Add the butterscotch pudding mix to the creamed mixture, beating until combined. Add eggs one at a time, mixing
well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
5. Combine Dry Ingredients: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
6. Fold in Butterscotch Chips: Gently fold in the butterscotch chips until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
7. Portion and Bake: Scoop dough into tablespoon-sized balls and place them on the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Bake for
8-10 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden. The centers may appear slightly underbaked but will firm up as they cool.
8. Cool and Enjoy: Allow cookies to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Store any leftovers
in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week.
