Ingredients

Scale
  • 113 g (1/2 cup) unsalted butter
  • 160 g (1 1/4 cups) all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 110 g (1/2 cup) light brown sugar
  • 55 g (1/4 cup) granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
  • 1 large egg, at room temperature
  • 120 g (3/4 cup) semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 120 g (3/4 cup) butterscotch chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F/177°C.  Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a small saucepan, melt the butter over medium-high heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the butter has brown specks through. Remove from the heat and transfer to a large bowl to cool.
  3. In a medium bowl, whisk the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.
  4. To the cooled butter, add the sugars and whisk vigorously for 2 minutes, until a thick, light, and creamy consistency.
  5. Whisk in the egg and vanilla until evenly combined.
  6. Add the dry ingredients and fold until mostly combined.
  7. Add the chocolate and butterscotch chips and continue mixing until completely combined.
  8. Using a 2 tablespoon scoop, scoop the dough onto the baking sheet, leaving 2 inches of space between each cookie.
  9. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden brown and the centers are still light and slightly underbaked.
  10. Allow to cool for 5 minutes on the hot sheet pan, then transfer to a wire cooling rack.

Notes

Storage: Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 4 days.

Freezer: Scoop the dough into balls and place them on a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper. Chill the dough for 30 minutes, then transfer to a freezer-safe bag and freeze for up to 3 months.
