Butterscotch Almond and Oatmeal Cookies image

Fairly healthy...and delicious too! Feel free to change up the mixin's. Sometimes if I'm feeling especially healthy, I throw in a bit of ground flax seed too for the omega 3s.

The cookies didn't turn out as chewy as I expected. I think I overbaked them.

These cookies are a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll use less sugar next time.
