Yield 36 cookies, 18 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1/3 cup sugar
2/3 cup flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 1/2 cups instant oats
1/3 cup brown sugar, packed
3/4 cup butterscotch chips
1/2 cup walnuts, chopped
1/2 cup butter, softened
1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Creating the Gift in a Jar:
  • Wash and thoroughly dry a 1-quart wide-mouth canning jar.
  • Layer the ingredients in the jar as listed above starting with the sugar, flour, salt, cinnamon, baking soda, oatmeal, brown sugar, butterscotch chips and then walnuts - make sure to press firmly with a flat bottomed object after each addition; make the layers as level as possible.

  • OATMEAL SCOTCHIES COOKIES GIFT TAG:
  • Additional ingredients to be added by the recipient: 1/2 cup butter, softened, 1 egg and 1 tsp vanilla extract.
  • COOKIE INSTRUCTIONS:
  • Preheat oven to 375.
  • In a large bowl, blend the butter, egg and vanilla extract.
  • Add the contents of the jar, and stir until well mixed.
  • Drop the dough by heaping teaspoonfuls onto an ungreased baking sheet, spacing the cookies about 2 inches apart.
  • Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are light brown in color.
  • Allow to cool for 2 minutes on the baking sheet, then transfer to wire racks and cool completely.
  • Serve immediately or store in an airtight container for up to 1 week.

Tips:

  • Use old-fashioned oats. Steel-cut oats are too chewy, and quick-cooking oats will make your cookies too soft.
  • Chill the dough before baking. This will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
  • Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing will make the cookies tough.
  • Bake the cookies until they are just set. Overbaking will make them dry and crumbly.
  • Let the cookies cool completely before storing them. This will help them keep their shape and flavor.

Conclusion:

Oatmeal scotchies are a delicious and easy-to-make cookie that is perfect for any occasion. They are chewy, gooey, and full of flavor. With a few simple tips, you can make the perfect oatmeal scotchies every time.
