- 1 cup butter or margarine, softened

- 1 teaspoon baking soda

- 1/2 cup milk chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup butterscotch chips
This blend adds a fun twist and layers of flavor to every bite!
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 375°F.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine both sugars, softened butter, and the egg. Mix until smooth.
- Gradually stir in the flour, baking soda, and salt. The dough will be thick.
- Fold in the chopped nuts and chocolate chips (or your custom chip blend).
- Drop rounded tablespoonfuls of dough onto an ungreased cookie sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
- Bake for 8 to 10 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers are still soft.
- Let cookies cool slightly before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Yields approximately 4 dozen cookies.
