So my man is away for a month in Florida...I can't go out and drink my heartache away because Aggieville has its stupid Fake Patty's Day drunk fest today (I already worked during it, you can't pay me enough to go back down there!)...so instead I bake. And what did I bake you ask? Butterscotch Pecan Chocolate Chip Cookies (I still have a while to go before swimming suit season, right?!)
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Combine 3/4 cup brown sugar, 3/4 cup granulated sugar, 1 cup butter softened, and 1 teaspoon vanilla and beat until creamy.
Add 2 eggs and beat.
Add 2 1/4 cups flour, 1 teaspoon kosher salt, 1 teaspoon baking soda and mix well.
Stir in 1/2 bag of semi-sweet chocolate chips and 1/2 bag of butterscotch chips.
Stir in 1 cup chopped pecans.
Drop mixture by rounded teaspoons onto ungreased cookie sheets. Bake 8-10 minutes.
It says it should make 100 2-inch cookies, but I eat so much cookie dough while I'm baking, it ends up being way less!!
Well, I still miss ol' Ike, but baking (eating!) the cookies has helped....maybe it's because I'm over at his place (far, far away from Aggieville!!!).
Either way, let the countdown begin.....18 days (253 cookies) until I see him!!!
