Quick No Bake Oatmeal Scotchies (Print Version)
# Ingredients:
01 -
½ cup unsalted butter
02 -
½ cup milk
03 -
2 cups granulated sugar
04 -
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
05 -
pinch of kosher salt
06 -
1 cup butterscotch morsels
07 -
3 cups quick cook oatmeal, dry
# Instructions:
01 -
In large saucepan, on medium high heat, add butter, sugar and milk. Bring to a boil, and boil for a complete full minute. Remove from heat and stir in vanilla, salt and butterscotch morsels.
02 -
Stir for about 1-2 minutes, the butterscotch won't completely melt, it's okay. Fold in oatmeal.
03 -
Drop by large cookie scoop (2 tablespoon) onto a large sheet of parchment paper. Allow to set and cool, about 15 minutes. Store in airtight container. Enjoy.
# Notes:
01 -
Store uneaten cookies in an airtight container at room temperature
02 -
Use quick oats (not old-fashioned) as they're more finely processed and help the cookies stick together without flour
03 -
The butterscotch morsels won't fully melt when stirred into the butter mixture - that's fine as long as they're softened
04 -
These cookies are very sweet, more like a fudge with oatmeal than a traditional baked cookie
05 -
Try substituting the butterscotch with Biscoff spread, Nutella, or peanut butter for different flavors
