Best Ever Butterscotch Chocolate Chip Cookies Recipe
These butterscotch chocolate chip cookies are a dream come true for anyone who loves that sweet, caramel-like taste. I think you’ll find them incredibly satisfying and easy to make.
Key Ingredients & Cookie Tips
- Brown Sugar Focus: Using mostly brown sugar gives these butterscotch chocolate chip cookies a chewy texture and a deep, rich flavor. It’s important for that perfect softness.
- Chill Your Cookie Dough: Let the cookie dough chill for at least 30 minutes before baking. This helps the flavors blend and prevents your cookies from spreading too much in the oven.
What You Need for Butterscotch Chocolate Chip Cookies
- 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
- 1 ½ cups packed light brown sugar
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 cup butterscotch chips
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

How to Make Butterscotch Chocolate Chip Cookies
Step 1: Mix Wet Ingredients
Cream together the softened butter and both sugars in a large bowl until they are light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract until everything is well combined.
Step 2: Combine Dry & Wet
In a separate bowl, stir together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix. Fold in the butterscotch and chocolate chips.
Step 3: Bake the Cookies
Drop rounded spoonfuls of dough onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake at 375°F (190°C) for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown. Let them cool on the sheet for a few minutes before moving to a wire rack.
📝 Final Note
These butterscotch chocolate chip cookies taste even better the next day! Store them in an airtight container at room temperature to keep them fresh.
Bills Classic Chocolate Chip Cookies
Bills Chocolate Chip Cookies are a simple, reliable recipe that everyone loves. This is my go-to for a perfect everyday treat that always turns out wonderfully.
Key Ingredients & Chocolate Chip Cookie Baking Tips
- Room Temperature Eggs: Make sure your eggs are at room temperature. This helps them mix better with the butter and sugar, giving you a smoother cookie dough texture.
- Don’t Overmix the Dough: Once you add the flour, mix just until combined. Overmixing the cookie dough can make your chocolate chip cookies tough, and we want them soft and chewy.

How to Make Bills Chocolate Chip Cookies
Step 1: Cream Together
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). In a large bowl, cream the softened butter with the granulated and brown sugars until the mixture is light and fluffy. Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until well combined.
Step 2: Mix Dry Ingredients
In a separate bowl, stir together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing until a dough forms. Be sure not to overmix the dough. Stir in the chocolate chips.
Step 3: Bake Until Golden
Drop spoonfuls of cookie dough onto an ungreased baking sheet. Bake for 9-11 minutes, or until the edges are slightly golden. Let them cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
📝 Final Note
For extra chewy chocolate chip cookies, slightly underbake them so they are still soft in the middle when you take them out of the oven. They will set as they cool.
