It’s got everything you’ve ever needed in a cookie and its the perfect blend of salty and sweet. So let get making our cookies!

 

In a small saucepan melt the butter and bring it to a boil. When it starts to boil, swirl the pan. When the foam goes away and the color changes to a deep caramel color remove from the heat. Let it cool for about 20 minutes. Preheat oven to 350 degrees and prepare a cookie sheet with a silpat mat or parchment paper. In a medium bowl combine the flour, baking soda, and salt. Whisk together and set aside.

 

In the saucepan with your cooled butter add the brown sugar, eggs, and vanilla and stir.

 

Pour into your flour mixture and stir with a wooden spoon until there are no more streaks of flour. Stir in the butterscotch and chocolate chips, and pretzels.

 

Make 2 inch round balls and place 2 inches apart on your prepared cookie sheet. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are golden. Let cool for a few minutes and then move to wire cooling rack.
