Butterscotchers

These chewy, buttery-tasting cookies with bits of butterscotch are delicious straight from the oven or up to three days old - if they last that long!

Ingredients

1/4 cup margarine, softened

1 cup plus 2 tablespoons all purpose flour

1/3 cup firmly packed brown sugar

1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1/3 cup sugar

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

Egg substitute equivalent to 1 egg, or

1/4 teaspoon salt

whites of 2 large eggs

1/2 cup butterscotch morsels

1 teaspoon vanilla, butter, and nut

flavoring

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

In a medium bowl, with an electric mixer on low, beat margarine until smooth.

Add sugars; beat until well blended.

Add egg substitute and vanilla, butter, and nut flavoring; beat until well blended.

Stir in butterscotch morsels.

On two nonstick baking sheets or baking sheets line with cooking parchment, drop batter by rounded teaspoonfuls 2 inches apart (12 cookies on a baking sheet); set one baking sheet aside.

Bake cookies on other baking sheet for 9 minutes (cookies won't look quite done). Let lookies stand on baking sheet for one full minute to finish cooking without drying out. Transfer cookies to a cooling rack immediately so they won't stick to baking sheet; let cool completely.

Meanwhile, bake cookies on second baking sheet.
