I am not sure how many people like butterscotch chips out there. I get the feeling that a lot of people feel butterscotch is a flavor that old(er) people like.
So let’s see…if you like butterscotch chips, raise your hand…(I do! I do!) Well, if you are a fan, then these are the cookies for you. Even if you are not a fan, there is a mix of half milk chocolate to half butterscotch chips, so you should still try one. I love chewy, tender oatmeal cookies anyway, but I loved the addition of the butterscotch/milk-chocolate chips.
By the way, this recipe is handed down from my mother, which was typed up on a recipe card from a type-writer! That tells you how old this recipe is! Haha! But that must mean it is good right, if it’s made it this many years into the future? Just kidding Mom! I just adjusted it a tad, for elevation reasons.

Do you use quick oats or old fashioned?
I typically use quick oats for these. Either should be fine though. Old fashioned oats will just be chewier.
I love your recipe! Would you come over to Cast Party Wednesday at Lady Behind The Curtain and share it with us?

I typed many recipes on little 3×5 cards on a typewriter! Does that age me??
A blog is so much easier to share my favorite recipes. I’ll take the present!
Your cookies look delicious, I might try subbing peanut butter chips for the butterscotch. Do you like that idea?
I’ll try it and let you know how it turns out!
Thanks for sharing.
Peanut butter chips will be just as good I am sure! Basically oatmeal & anything is good! 🙂
