Even though the title doesn’t say it, I did add some butterscotch morsels to the mix because I needed to use them up. Mr. G really loved the combination of all those flavors. I also prefer to use dark chocolate chips in this recipe so its not over the otp sweet. You could also add some pecans or walnuts too.
Baking Tip
I have learned through trial and error that having ruined cookies is to use a baking silicone sheet on your cookie sheet. It really does keep the bottoms from burning and only turning golden brown.
Get ready to experience a cookie like no other with this recipe. The marriage of all these yummy ingredients creates a flavor profile that’s truly irresistible. Whether you’re sharing them with friends, giving some for a gift or savoring them with a glass of milk, these cookies are bound to become a favorite in your baking repertoire.
Happy baking!
