Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter
- 1 cup light brown sugar
- 0.5 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 2 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
- 1 cup butterscotch chips
- 0.75 cup chopped walnuts
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line a 9x13-inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang for easy removal.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar together until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the eggs and vanilla extract to the mixture and continue beating until well combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
Fold in the rolled oats, butterscotch chips, and chopped walnuts until evenly distributed.
Spread the dough evenly into the prepared baking pan, pressing it down lightly with a spatula or your hands.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Allow the cookie bars to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack before lifting them out using the parchment overhang.
Cut into 16 squares or bars and serve. Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
