Oatmeal Scotchies

I started making these cookies because DarRell had mentioned that it was one of his favorite cookies that his mom made during the holidays.

Oatmeal Scotchies

1 1/4 cups flour
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
1 cup (2 sticks) butter, softened
3/4 cup sugar
3/4 cup packed brown sugar
2 eggs
1 tsp vanilla extract
3 cups old fashioned oats
2 cups butterscotch chips

Combine flour, baking soda, salt and cinnamon in a small bowl. Beat butter, sugar, brown sugar, eggs and vanilla until creamy. Gradually beat in flour mixture until thoroughly mixed. Stir in oats and butterscotch chips. Drop by rounded Tbsp onto ungreased baking sheets.

Bake in a preheated 375 degree oven for 7-8 minutes (chewy) or 9-10 minutes (crispy). Let stand for 2 minutes; remove to wire racks to cool completely.

Makes approximately 4 dozen cookies.
