Ingredients

  • ½ cup unsalted butter softened
  • ½ cup sugar
  • ½ cup brown sugar
  • 1 large eggs
  • 1 tsp. vanilla
  • ½ tsp. salt
  • ½ tsp. baking soda
  • 1 1 oz box butterscotch instant pudding, or around this size
  • cups flour
  • 1 tsp water
  • ½ cup butterscotch chips
  • ½ cup white chocolate chips

Instructions

  • In a large bowl, add 1 stick butter, and ½ cup each brown and white sugars. Add 1 tsp vanilla and using a paddle attachment or a wooden spoon, cream together butter and sugars.
  • Add in 1 egg and stir briefly until chunky. Add in ½ tsp salt, ½ tsp baking soda, and 1 oz pudding powder together in a separate bowl. Add to the wet mixture then slowly add flour.
  • Add in both white and butterscotch chocolate chips and fold in gently until evenly distributed. You may want to reserve a few to press into the tops fresh from the oven!
  • Optional: refrigerate the dough for 30 minutes. This will help make light and fluffy cookies!
  • Bake on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet 7-9 minutes, or until light golden brown around the edges. Mine are perfect at exactly 8 minutes. Move to a cooling rack to cool. Optionally press a couple extra chocolate chips into the top to make them look pretty.
