I started out with good intentions of making biscuits and somehow, along the way, I made Butterscotch Cookies! They were great as they were but I know my boys and they are not fond of butterscotch. However, I can put dark chocolate chips in anything and they will gobble it up. I think I’ll try them in cornbread just to see if my theory is true .
I’ll let you know. 😉 Eat these as they are or add oats, nuts, dried fruit, cinnamon sugar and/or dark chocolate. Just make them and get raves about making the best cookies ever! One of my twins told me, “Hey Mom, they didn’t even need milk!” My oldest said to me, “When I have children, I’ll bring them over at Christmas to eat the best Grandma cookies!” That’s why I write Recipes For My Boys, so they will have their favorites … forever.
