These cookies will never win in a beauty contest. They are monochromatic, many are misshapen and the chips have a sunken in appearance. But as they say, it’s what’s on the inside that counts. And that means that these cookies are a major winner. You can see why just by the title – pumpkin and butterscotch, two ingredients that are already wonderful on their own, come together to make magic happen. The resulting cookies are quite addictive. Normally I have fantastic willpower when it comes to sweets, but I found these irresistible and ate way too many in one day (so did Ben). I’ve made pumpkin chocolate chip cookies before and while those are good, it is no contest – these are the best.
