Butterscotch Walnut Cookies

The holidays are the perfect time for some homemade baked goods! But I have good news: you don’t have to be an expert in the kitchen to whip up some seasonal sweets.

I have a butterscotch walnut cookie recipe that you’re sure to love – and that will taste more homemade and complex than it really is.

Here’s what you need:

  • 1/3 – 1/2 cup butterscotch chips
  • 1/3 – 1/2 cup chopped walnuts
  • 1/2 cup cooking oil
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 box yellow cake mix

Preheat your oven to 350F.

Then, add your cake mix, eggs, and oil to your mixing bowl.

My sweet boyfriend just bought me this stand mixer from Kuppet. Because I’ve not had it long, I’ve only made cookies in it so far, but I already can tell that I love it! It has multiple attachments for various batters, and that makes a huge difference in how much air gets into your mix.

I whipped this cookie dough up using one of the slower settings.

Then, after mixing my cake mix, eggs, and oil for a few minutes, I added my walnuts and butterscotch chips and mixed for just about 20-30 seconds so they were evenly dispersed.

Roll your cookie dough into ping-pong sized balls, and spread them out on a cookie sheet. Bake for 10-11 minutes.

Enjoy! I hope you love how the sweetness of the butterscotch gets complimented by the crunch of the walnuts.
