Ingredients
Cookie Dough Mixture
- 1 stick butter softened
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ½ cup light brown sugar packed
- 1 cup sugar
- 2 eggs
- 2¾ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 11 ounces butterscotch chips
Sugar Mixture
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1 tablespoon cinnamon
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. Put silicone mat on cookie sheet, or spray cookie sheet with cooking spray.
- In a medium mixing bowl, mix butter, vanilla, brown sugar, sugar and eggs with a hand mixer until blended. Add flour, baking soda and nutmeg and mix with a large spoon. Add entire bag of butterscotch chips. Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes. Refrigerate for less time if you want the cookies to be more flat and crunchy.
- Mix sugar and cinnamon together in a small bowl.
- For each cookie, roll about a tablespoon of cookie dough into a ball. Roll each ball in the cinnamon sugar mixture before placing on the cookie sheet. Leave about an inch in between each cookie. If you didn't refrigerate your dough as long to get thinner crispier cookies, leave about two inches in between each cookie as those will spread out more.
- Bake for 12-14 minutes until golden. Remove cookies to wire racks for cooling.
