Ingredients

  • 2 1/4 cups all purpose flour
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp kosher salt
  • 1 cup butter softened
  • 3/4 cup sugar
  • 3/4 cup packed brown sugar
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 (9oz) bag pumpkin spice morsels
  • 1 cup butterscotch morsels

Instructions

  • In a medium size mixing bowl, combine the flour, soda, and salt: set aside.
  • In a large mixing bowl, using an electric mixer, beat the butter until smooth. Beat in the 2 sugars until well combined. Add the vanilla and eggs, beat until smooth.
  • Gradually beat in the flour mixture, just until well combined. Stir in the pumpkin spice and butterscotch morsels. Cover and refrigerate dough for 30 to 45 minutes.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line baking sheets with parchment paper. (I use baking stones for my cookies and the bottoms never get too dark or burn)
  • Using a small scoop, place cookie dough balls onto baking sheets.Bake for about 9-10 minutes until dough is set and edges are light golden brown. Remove from oven and allow to set on pan about 2 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool.

***For a variation, I tried adding 1/2 cup chopped dried cranberries into the dough instead of the butterscotch morsels. The cookies were also delicious.
