We added a surprise to our family favorite oatmeal cookie recipe today and absolutely loved it. I woke up craving warm oatmeal cookies and a tall glass of cold milk. I decided to try something different with them to make the special and I have to say that these are a win because I like them much better with the butterscotch.
This recipe gives you a crunchy outside and soft center – sounds perfect right? I was trying to think of some treats to make for book club…..and this will be a great one. Everyone loves oatmeal cookies…this recipe makes them feel gourmet and special – which is how I want all my friends to feel when they come over <3
