Oatmeal Raisin Butterscotch Cookies

July 19, 2013

I adapted this recipe from the cookbook Flour given to me by my aunt. I approximately halved the recipe, except for the spices, and added vanilla extract and butterscotch chips. I often find butterscotch chips overpoweringly sweet, so I added just 1/3 cup to this recipe, and it added just the right touch of extra sweetness. If you don't like butterscotch, they can be omitted. These cookies are wonderfully chewy, slightly spicy, and are the best oatmeal raisin cookies I've ever made

1/2 cup butter, room temp
1/3 cup sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 egg
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/2+1/3 cup (slightly heaping) all-purpose flour
1/2+1/3 cup (slightly heaping) old fashioned rolled oats
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp kosher salt
1/4 tsp nutmeg
1/4 tsp cinnamon
3/4 cup raisins
1/3 cup butterscotch chips

Preheat the oven to 350? Cream together butter and sugars until light and fluffy. Beat in the egg and vanilla. In a separate bowl, combine the flour, oats, baking soda, salt, nutmeg, cinnamon, and raisins....
