The Christmas season is not complete for me without making a batch of Oatmeal Scotchies! I absolutely love these cookies. Christmas Eve was spent baking these and eating them warm right out of the oven. I just love the combination of oats and butterscotch flavors. If you have never tried these cookies, they are an absolute must try! I am thinking I might want to try mixing things up a bit and making a pumpkin version of these. You can find this recipe on the back of the Nestle’s Butterscotch Morsel bag.

Oatmeal Scotchies

Ingredients:

  • 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 cup (2 sticks) butter or margarine, softened
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 3/4 cup packed brown sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract or grated peel of 1 orange
  • 3 cups quick or old-fashioned oats
  • 1 2/3 cups (11-oz. pkg.) NESTLÉ® TOLL HOUSE® Butterscotch Flavored Morsels

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 375° F.

2. Combine flour, baking soda, salt and cinnamon in small bowl. Beat butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar, eggs and vanilla extract in large mixer bowl. Gradually beat in flour mixture. Stir in oats and morsels. Drop by rounded tablespoon onto ungreased baking sheets.

3. Bake for 7 to 8 minutes for chewy cookies or 9 to 10 minutes for crisp cookies. Cool on baking sheets for 2 minutes; remove to wire racks to cool completely. Enjoy!

I love cake mix cookies! I have posted several cake mix cookie recipes in the past including Carrot Spice Cookies, Half Cup German Chocolate Cookies, and Soft Chocolate Peanut Butter Cookies. I found a Oatmeal Raisin Cake Mix Cookie recipe at cdkitchen.com, but I wasn’t in the mood for oatmeal raisin cookies. I wanted butterscotch! So I made Spice Cake Oatmeal Scotchies. I would have to rank these cookies as one of my all time favorites! Oatmeal and butterscotch always pair well, but the addition of spice flavor in these cookies is amazing!
