Here's what I use for these delightful treats:

Notes
A few tips to keep in mind for the best results:
Make sure the butter is soft, not melted. This helps with texture.
If you prefer a softer cookie, reduce baking time slightly.
Keep dough chilled between batches. This prevents spreading.
If you're feeling adventurous, swap half the butterscotch chips for chocolate chips!
Store cookies in an airtight container to keep them fresh longer.
These cookies are great for sharing or enjoying with a glass of milk. Happy baking! 🍪🎉
