Excellent recipe. I added about 1/4 of coconut for some extra chewiness...FANTASTIC. Cook on 325 to avoid spreading. Yes, they are very sweet so if you are concerned, use a bit less sugar.

Great, basic butterscotch cookie, and very easy to make. I used parchment paper and baked at 350 (well, really 325 in my convection oven) and they turned out great, no sticking problems.

Great tasting cookie! I would say they're a little sweet, but I love sweet. I will try refrigerating the dough next time before scooping and baking as they did spread too much and weren't as visually appealing as I would have liked. I may also try adding more butter as some have suggested. They are a great mixture of crispy and chewy though! Thanks for the recipe!

I had baked another recipe prior to this one so I mistakenly baked this recipe at 325 degrees for 10 minutes and they came out great. I also accidentally overbaked one sheet of cookies and my mom loved the crunchy version! I added 1 cup of pecans to my version (everyone loved the cookies!) however, for my next batch, I'm going to use 1 cup butterscotch chips and 2/3 cup milk chocolate chips plus the 1 cup chopped pecans. I can't wait!

Used some suggestions from the reviews and upped the butter to 1 cup. Refrigerated the dough and formed into balls before baking. I found these cookies overly sweet, and will reduce the sugar if I make them again. The rest of my family liked them, though. Thanks!

A few tips: I followed the recipe exactly (except I used I Can't Believe It's not Butter sticks). I mixed the brown and white sugar first. Make sure "butter" is softened so a knife goes right thru without resistance. thorughly mixing in sugar and later the oatmeal is key. I used a large serving spoon. The oatmeal must be well coated. Mine were perfect. Chewy and a little crispy. Sooooo delicious!!!

The ideal cookie--a little chewy, crisp and buttery around the edges, and packed with yummy flavor. Yes, these are very sweet cookies, primarily because butterscotch chips are super sweet. Taking the advice of some other reviewers, I added a few extra tablespoons of butter to the recipe. I also chilled the dough for 3-4 hours before I scooped them onto sheets and baked. This was primarily because I was serving them warm for a dessert after dinner but I do think that helped them not spread so much, as these sorts of cookies have for me before. I wasn't sure about the cinnamon before baking--I wasn't sure if they'd overwhelm the cookie but they add the perfect dimension to the cookie. I would leave it in again for sure. As far as baking time went, for me it was around 10 minutes. I wanted them lightly browned on the edges and not too terribly pale on top. Use your instinct or do a test batch on just a few if you're not sure. Times are so relative depending on your own oven and size of cookie. My guests raved--they're addictive!

I added extra cinnamon and also put half butterscotch chips and half chooclate chips. They were really good cookies! Next time i would underbake them a little more because they were a bit too crunchy for my liking. Overall though, very tasty!

This recipe was Cindy McCain's submitted in Family Circle magazine. Not sure who copied whom. The cookies are good, although very sweet. I did as others and added extra cinnamon and a pinch of nutmeg. Baked at 350 for about 9 to 10 minutes.

Everyone ate at least two of these at a recent BBQ. I added almost a full cup of butter, 1tsp cinnamon, a sprinkle of nutmeg and cooked at 350. They look like they are not cooked all the way after about 9 min. But take them out...they ARE done

These were very good. I just made a few slight changes for personal preference and followed some other reviewer's tips. I used closer to one cup of butter for softness, used 1 tsp. cinnamon instead of 1/2 (which I thought brought out the flavor nicely without being overwhelming), used only 1/2 c. of white sugar (which turned out great) and baked them at 350F for 9 mins (after letting the dough refrigerate for approx 30 mins). The batch made 45 mini cookies and they turned out very soft and delicious :)

The only thing I did differently was with the oatmeal. I used 1 1/2 cups quick oats and 1 1/2 cups old fashoned oats. It worked great and my cookies didn't have the flat problem.
