Servings: 20 Giant Cookies
Ingredients
- 1 cup Crisco
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 1 cup sugar
- 2 eggs
- 2 1/2 teaspoons maple syrup
- 2 3/4 cups flour
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 2 teaspoons baking soda
- 1 1/2 teaspoons cream of tartar
- 1 11 ounce package of butterscotch chips
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- In a mixing bowl cream together shortening and sugars.
- Add in eggs and maple syrup. Beat well.
- Sift together flour, salt, baking soda and cream of tartar, and add to wet ingredients. Mix well.
- Fold in butterscotch chips.
- Scoop with a 1/4 cup measuring scoop or cookie scoop and roll into balls. Press down the tops slightly, but do not flatten.
- Bake for 12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown. Centers will still look a little underdone, but it's okay. Leave them on the cookie sheet for a couple of minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool.
Notes
If you make these a normal cookie size, decrease the baking time to about 8 minutes.
