Cowboy Oatmeal Cookies

This oatmeal cookie recipe is the kids' favorite. It doesn't call for nuts, but I sometimes add about 1/2 cup of chopped walnuts or pecans.

Ingredients

• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 cup white sugar
• 1 cup packed brown sugar
• 2 cups quick cooking oats
• 1 cup butterscotch chips

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Step 2

Sift together flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt in a medium bowl; set aside.

Step 3

Beat brown sugar, white sugar, margarine, and oil with an electric mixer in a large bowl until smooth. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Add flour mixture and stir until dough is just combined. Mix in oats and butterscotch chips. Drop spoonfuls of dough 2 inches apart onto ungreased baking sheets.

Step 4

Bake in the preheated oven until edges are golden, 10 to 12 minutes. Allow cookies to cool for a few minutes before transferring to wire racks to cool completely.
