Hi! Its Meghan from Cupcakes with Sprinkles! I love being here! I have a cookie for you today that will make your mouth water. It is a butterscotch cookie. A crispy on the outside, chewy, super soft cookie. It has little crispy bits from the heath bar which are awesome. I added chocolate chips because I cant have a cookie without a little chocolate:)
Lets make these cookies!
In the bowl of a stand mixer combine the sugars and butter…
Add in the eggs, pudding, vanilla, and vanilla extract and beat on medium for 1 minute…
In a separate bowl whisk together the flour, salt, and baking powder…
Add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients and mix until just combined. Cover with saran wrap and chill for at least 2 hours. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper or a silpat mat and scoop 1 1/2 tablespoon size balls onto it. Bake at 350 for about 11 minutes. Let cool on the cookie sheet for 5 minutes before moving to a cooling rack. Enjoy!

Question: On your Butterscotch cookies, Is the pudding …….instant or cooking?
We should have specified that… so sorry! It’s instant pudding! I’m going to go update the post to reflect that so other aren’t confused too. Hope you enjoy these cookies! <3

You are so right, and I was JUST thinking about that yesterday. I’m going to look into adding that as an option. I’m SO BAD with the technical stuff! 😉
