Recipe of the day! 12/14/05 Oatmeal Scotchies
I thought it would be cool to post a new recipe everyday and then if you try it you can post how it was or what you would do differently etc. Thanks to Azad I found a great website allrecipes.com that has so many recipes. But today I am going to post my favorite cookie recipe of all time. These are sooo good!
The two ingredients which make these extraordinary cookies special are oats and butterscotch chips. These will disappear from your cookie jar in no time. Enjoy!
