Step-by-Step Instructions for Sea Salt Butterscotch Chocolate Chip Cookies
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the cold unsalted butter with both brown sugar and granulated sugar. Beat until creamy and well combined, about 2-3 minutes.
  3. Add the large egg and vanilla extract to the mixture. Mix on low speed until fully incorporated, about 30 seconds.
  4. Gradually sift in the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt. Mix on low speed just until combined.
  5. Gently fold in the butterscotch chips and semisweet chocolate chips until they're evenly dispersed.
  6. Using a cookie scoop, drop spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
  7. If desired, press a few extra chocolate and butterscotch chips into the tops of the dough before baking.
  8. Bake for 10-13 minutes until edges are lightly browned and tops are firm. Adjust baking time for softer or firmer cookies.
  9. Let cookies cool on baking sheets for 5 minutes. Sprinkle with sea salt while warm, then transfer to wire racks to cool completely.
