After reading the other reviews, I increased the flour to 2 cups and the resulting cookie was delicious.

The first time I used this recipes I found that my batter was extremely runny and the cookies came out somewhat flat. They still tasted good, although a little too sweet. The second time I made this recipes I added more flour. (I don't know how much flour I actually ended up adding. I just mixed it in until the dough resembled chocolate chip cookie dough.) The second time, I also chose to bake them in a cake pan and make bar cookies out of them. My coworkers absolutely loved these. I also made it without the pecans as some of my coworkers don't eat nuts. I would definately make this again, but only with the extra flour!

These cookies are soooooo good! I baked a pan of them with the recipe as is. I thought they had spread a bit too much, so added more flour like the other reviewers had said. I should have tasted them first. I was very disappointed that I'd added the flour. Yes, the cookies spread, but if you don't overbake them, they come out nice and chewy, leaving me wondering if they are a cookie or a candy--a very good quality for a cookie named "chewies". Definitely don't add more flour!!!!! I was so disappointed with the flavor of them--they tasted like a toll-house cookie wannabe. And, they were bland--too floury and maybe needed salt. I think the cookies turn out so differently for people because we all have different ovens, of varying age and quality. Buy an oven thermometer and see if you are baking at the temperature your thermostat says.

Maybe it's just my sweet tooth, but I cut down on the chips because of others comments and I thought they could have used more. I am making them again for a cookie exchange this weekend and I will use the full 2 cups. Mine stayed soft until the very end. I thought this recipie was excellent and am going to regret giving 10 dozen away!

Theese cookies were way too sweet for me. They also stuck to my teeth and were missing something. I added cinnimon and wheat flour to the batter after I made the first batch and that helped.

These were very good first coming out of the oven per my kids but they were not too thrilled after they cooled. For me personally they are very very sweet but the kids enjoyed them when they were warm. It has been a few days and I still have cookies leftover which is not a good sign. Sorry

Wonderful!! I did take the previous reviewers' suggestions of adding more flour to create a very soft dough. I did not use the pecans, but the cookies came out so flavorful. The smell in my house was just amazing!

These cookies are yummy! Made them for a Cookie Walk that my son's school is having. I read other reviews and decided to add about 1/4 cup extra flour. They spread thin when they bake, but that's what makes them chewy. They are Sweet, so be prepared. I would make these again!

Great cookies when made right. Don't overbake them or they are hard, but still great with milk!

Good cookie! I had to use a large toaster oven, and the first set of cookies did come out a little flatter than your normal cookie, but after that the rest of the batches came out fine. I don't think you need to grease your pan. Also, the batter is wetter than a regular cookie one, but I think that's what makes it chewier...It is called Butterscotch chewies after all! I guess you could put in more flour as I read another reviewer suggest, but my husband prefers chewier cookies.
