This past week was absolutely “nuts” for me. Two failed recipes, a LIVE cooking show, a showing on our house and it’s not even listed on the market. After the two recipes failed I decided to take the week off and just concentrate on personal matters.
That means I’m back and ready to go this week and I’m starting off with these Nestle Crunch Butterscotch Cookies. They were the only things that worked out this past week and a good ole’ cookie recipe just makes me happy.
It doesn’t hurt when it’s loaded with cookie bar pieces, butterscotch chips and chocolate chips. I was also able to make a large batch and freeze 2/3 of the dough so whenever I want a cookie I can pop one into the oven.
Tip: Place the cookie dough using a scooper or spoon onto a baking sheet. Flash freeze for 10 minutes and then remove dough and place in freezer Ziploc bags. Place back in freezer until ready to use. Dough will stay good in the freezer up to 6 months.
Now I’m off to go play catch up from this past week. I’ll be back with more recipes this week.
ENJOY ~ Meagan
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
In a large bowl whisk together the butter and sugars until creamy. Beat in eggs and vanilla. Slowly incorporate baking soda, salt, espresso powder and flour. Then mix in crunch bars, butterscotch and chocolate chips.
Using a cookie scoop or spoon place 2 teaspoon size balls onto parchment paper about 1 inch from each other.
Bake in the oven for 10 minutes and then remove to cool.

These cookies look amazing!
SUCH a crazy week! These cookies are the perfect way to get back into a good rhythm. Hope this week is more calm.
EEEk!! I hope this show went well. Sorry it was such a crazy week. More cookies!!
Those little crunch bars are my favorite!! I love texture in my cookies, (I rarely eat a plain cookie), and the combination of those bars and butterscotch is pretty much heaven to my ears!
Eeeek. Sorry for the crazy week. Hope things are looking better this week. And at least you have cookie dough in your freezer!
These look deliciously chewy and packed with tasty morsels – I wish I had one right now (okay, as long as I’m wishing, I wish I had 6!)! I love how a good batch of cookies can help turn around an “off” day or week 🙂
omg that’s A LOT! You’re so amazing! and you totally deserve to eat like…at least 6 of these delicious delicious cookies!
Good for you in realizing HELP and taking that week off to focus on a part of your life!!!! Good for you for the cookies. I make a similar cookies without the espresso powder. I am lovin’ that idea. Inspired.
Yummy! Sounds like a busy week! Whenever I have frozen cookie dough, I end up eating gobs of it straight from the freezer 🙂
Wow – what an amazing combination of ingredients. Love it!
OMG OMG OMG. I love Crunch bars and I LOVE that these cookies have ’em nestled in all those fluffy, chewy layers even more! Pinning 😀
Sorry things have been so crazy! I bet these cookies definitely helped – yum!
