Instructions
-
Whisk the flour, cinnamon, baking soda, and salt together in a medium bowl. Set aside.
-
In a large bowl, beat the butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar together until combined and creamy for about 2 minutes.
-
Add the eggs, molasses, and vanilla and beat on high speed until combined, about 1 minute.
-
Scrape down the sides and up the bottom of the bowl and beat again as needed to combine.
-
Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix on low until combined.
-
With the mixer running on low speed, beat in the oats and butterscotch morsels. Dough will be thick and sticky.
-
Cover and chill the dough for at least 45 minutes in the refrigerator (and up to 4 days).
-
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
-
Line baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats. Set aside.
-
Scoop cookie dough, about 3 Tablespoons of dough per cookie, and place 4 inches apart on the baking sheets.
-
Bake for 13 to 14 minutes or until lightly browned on the sides. The centers will look very soft.
-
Remove from the oven and allow cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
-
While the cookies are still warm, you can press a few more butterscotch morsels into the tops!
Recipe Notes
- If chilling for longer than a few hours, allow to sit at room temperature for at least 30 minutes before rolling and baking because the dough will be quite hard.
- Cookies stay fresh covered at room temperature for up to 1 week.
