Cookie anyone?

United States

I had a craving for butterscotch. I don't think I've ever eaten butterscotch other than as a Lifesaver. I decided I would make butterscotch cookies. I bought the chips a few days ago, all other ingredients I had. It is basically a chocolate chip cookie recipe but you use butterscotch in place of chocolate. OK, sounded good. This morning I got out the ingredients, preheated the oven and began. When the first batch was baked I let them cool and I tasted one...OMG - they are so so so sweet! Even my husband who loves sweet things even more than I do, said they are beyond sweet. I now have over three dozen super-sweet cookies - so please - anyone want some? Photo is mine.

cookies get crummy sometime, but at my place, they get eaten fast.

While my daughter was home from university for Christmas break I did suggest she make her Skor and white chocolate chip cookies, which she did on her last day here. Though my husband knew about it and had a couple, he seems to have forgotten they are in the house so they're all mine!

@AbbyGreenhill Skor is a candy bar that is toffee coated in chocolate. Here you can buy a bag of Skor chips like you do chocolate chips. They're delicious.

I love butterscotch but you are so right they are so sweet it makes your hair curl. I made a batch for Christmas I think I ate two of them.

When I opened the bag I knew it was going to be a mistake! Lesson learned.

@AbbyGreenhill It would be nice if the decreased the sugar in those chips, but maybe next time I will decrease the sugar in the batter. Hmmmm that is an idea.

I don't like overly sweet either. If you don't want them, feed them to the birds
