Ingredients

1 cup butter or margarine, softened

1 cup sugar

1 cup brown sugar

2 large eggs

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon baking soda

1 (5.1 oz) box instant butterscotch pudding mix

2 3/4 cups all-purpose flour

1 cup butterscotch chips

1 cup white chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F.
  2. In a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream together the softened butter or margarine, sugar, and brown sugar until smooth.
  3. Add the eggs and vanilla extract, mixing until fully combined.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the salt, baking soda, and dry instant butterscotch pudding mix.
  5. Add the dry mixture to the wet ingredients. Slowly mix in the flour until a soft cookie dough forms.
  6. Fold in the butterscotch chips and white chocolate chips with a wooden spoon until evenly distributed.
  7. Cover the dough and chill in the refrigerator for 15 to 20 minutes.
  8. Scoop the dough onto a greased baking sheet, spacing the cookies apart.
  9. Bake for 7 to 9 minutes, or until the tops are lightly golden brown.
  10. Transfer the cookies to a cooling rack and allow them to cool before serving.

Notes

Add extra white chocolate chips for a sweeter flavor.

Sprinkle flaky salt on top before baking for a sweet and salty finish.

Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for 4 to 5 days.

Place a slice of bread in the storage container to help keep cookies soft.

Freeze baked cookies for up to 2 months in a freezer-safe container.

Warm cookies in the microwave for 8 to 10 seconds before serving for a freshly baked taste.

The dough can be frozen in scooped portions and baked from frozen with slightly longer bake time.
