  • 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp. baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp. ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp. salt
  • 1 cup (2 sticks) butter, softened
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 3/4 cup packed brown sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tsp. vanilla
  • 3 cups quick or old-fashioned oats (I used old fashioned)
  • 11-oz. pkg. butterscotch chips

Preheat oven to 375 degrees.

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

Bake 7-10 minutes.  Cool on baking sheets for 2 minutes, then move to wire racks to cool completely.  Makes approximately 4 dozen cookies.
