Well I must say I earned my namesake in September since I did a ton of baking and averaged a big batch of home made cookies (such as these Chips & Bits Cookies) weekly. It’s fun to try and create new cookies and make existing cookie recipes.
It was a beautiful September here in Calgary, averaging almost 24 daily with only 1 Rain Day. Kind of made it hard to put the oven on since none of us want to let go of Summer but Fall is definitely in the air as it cools off nicely in the evenings.
This week they are forecasting snow and I cringe knowing this will take out the last of the late summer flowers and be the final sign Summer is officially over.
These cookies come out of the oven puffy and then they drop to a flatter state. You could substitute an actual skor bar (broken up) for the plain toffee bits. The addition of the butterscotch chips adds an extra sweetness to the cookie. And the chocolate chips, well doesn’t everyone need a little chocolate sometimes?
