My sister passed this recipe onto me. Hope you like it. Ingredients:
1 cup all-purpose flour |
3 cups rolled oats |
1 cup packed brown sugar |
1 cup butter |
3/4 teaspoon baking soda |
1/2 teaspoon water |
*the original recipe does not call for butterscotch morsels but i add a handful of them. |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). 2. Dissolve the baking soda in the water. 3. Combine the flour, oats and brown sugar. 4. This is when I add a handful of butterscotch morsels, that might be equivalent to 1/2 cup. 5. Cut in the butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. 6. Stir in the baking soda mixture and form dough into a ball. 7. You can either press dough into the bottom of a 9 x 13 inch baking pan or roll dough out to 1/4 inch thick and cut with a cookie cutter. If you roll the dough then I would advise that you omit adding the butterscotch morsels. 8. Bake at 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) for 12 to 15 minutes. |
