Directions

1. Preheat Oven: Set your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

2. Cream Butter and Sugars: In a large bowl, beat the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar together until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.

3. Add Eggs and Vanilla: Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.

4. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing until just combined.

5. Fold in Chips: Gently fold in the butterscotch chips and chocolate chips until evenly distributed.

6. Scoop Dough: Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop rounded balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.

7. Bake: Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown but the centers are still soft.

8. Cool: Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
