  • 1 1/4 cups all purpose flour

  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 cup butter flavored Crisco or butter
  • 1 cup light brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 3.5 cups old fashioned oats
  • 2 cups butterscotch chips 12 oz bag

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.

  • In a separate large bowl cream Crisco or butter and sugar until smooth.
  • Add eggs to the sugar mixture and blend.
  • Add vanilla to the sugar mixture.
  • Add the dry ingredients to wet ingredients about 1/3 at a time mixing well each time.
  • Fold in oats followed by chips.
  • Use a small cookie scoop or teaspoon to drop dough onto two baking sheets.
  • Place baking sheets in the oven for 5 minutes.
  • After 5 minutes switch the trays by moving the top tray to the bottom and the bottom tray to the top.
  • Continue baking for an additional 5 minutes.
  • Remove cookies and cool for a few minutes then move to a wire rack.
  • Repeat the baking process for the remainder of the dough.

Notes

Switching the trays midway helps the cookies cook more evenly.
You might find that you don't need to cook the dough for 10 minutes. Feel free to experiment with less or more time to create a crispier or chewy texture.
