Ingredients
Scale
Dry Ingredients
- 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
Wet Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
Mix-ins
- 1 cup butterscotch chips
- 1 cup chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup shredded sweetened coconut
Instructions
- Prepare the Dough: In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Gradually add the flour and mix until well combined, forming the cookie dough base. Fold in butterscotch chips, chocolate chips, and shredded coconut evenly throughout the dough.
- Bake the Cookies: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Drop spoonfuls of the cookie dough onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges turn golden brown but centers remain soft. Remove from oven and allow cookies to cool on the baking sheet for several minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- Use softened butter for easier mixing and better texture.
- Do not overbake to keep cookies soft and chewy.
- For extra flavor, lightly toast the coconut before adding it to the dough.
- Ensure even spacing of cookie dough on baking sheets to prevent spreading into each other.
- Store cookies in an airtight container to maintain freshness for up to one week.
