Butterscotch Oatmeal Cookies

Sharing is caring!

One of my favorite cookie recipes has to be these delicious butterscotch oatmeal cookies!  They are sweet little bites of heaven!  I had a dream last night I was diagnosed with diabetes after gaining weight.  Once Christmas is over I really need a sugar siesta!  But for now, sugar abounds because I am not about to ruin Christmas by swearing off of sugar before the holiday!  Have you been making Christmas treats yet?  Sustaining your sugar high?  I have been.

Instructions for Making Butterscotch Oatmeal Cookies

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.  Prepare cookie sheet with cooking spray.

Roll the cookie dough into one and a half inch balls and place them on the cookie sheet (I usually fit 12 to a cookie sheet).  Rolling the dough into balls instead of just dropping spoonfuls on the cookies sheet gives you more uniform-looking cookies.

Bake at 350 degrees for 8-10 minutes.  Do not overcook-remove from the oven once the top of the cookie is turning  light brown.  Cool on cooling racks.
