They are even more delicious than they sound or look. Here's the original recipe, and below is my modified version. I didn't have shortening (and don't really like baking with it) so I doubled the butter. Also, while I like butterscotch, I thought there were a lot of flavors in this cookie, so I decided to try it with just white chocolate chips (doubled to make up for missing butterscotch). I would add more cherries next time too.
Ingredients
- 1 cup butter
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup firmly packed brown sugar
- 2 Large Eggs
- 1 Tbsp vanilla
- 2 cups All Purpose Flour
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1-1/2 cups quick cooking oats, uncooked
- 1 cup dried cherries (would increase to 1-1/2 cups next time)
- 1cup white chocolate chips
Instructions
- Heat oven to 375. Line baking sheets and set aside.
- In a large bowl, beat butter and shortening at medium speed until creamy. Gradually mix in both sugars. Add eggs and vanilla and continue to beat well.
- Combine flour and next three ingredients in a small bowl. Gradually add dry ingredients to butter mixture. Beat until well blended. Stir in cherries and both chips.
- Scoop dough by tablespoon full onto baking sheets. Bake for 8 minutes or until lightly browned. Cool for one minute on baking sheet before transferring to a wire racks to cool completely.
- Makes 48
