About this chocolate butterscotch chip cookie recipe

I made these cookies with my kids when their kindness elves had them bake cookies for their cousins. This was their first time tasting butterscotch and they LOVED IT! 🙂 We also made Christmas Cake Mix Cookiess’mores blossom cookies on that day and hazelnut snowball cookies. It was a lot of fun.
