Butterscotch Sea Salt Cookies
I’ve shared this before but my cookie game is usually not so strong. I toss out most batches of cookies I bake because they are just bad. This was one lucky batch and I’ll be happy if it’s the only good batch of cookies I ever bake. Feeling like a cookie champ after these!
Butterscotch Sea Salt Cookies:
* 1 + 1/2 cups all-purpose flour (or gluten free 1-to-1 baking flour)
* 1/2 cup brown sugar
* 1/4 cup coconut sugar
* 1/4 cup coconut oil, (soft)
* 1/4 cup room temperature vegan butter
* 1 flax egg (1 tbsp flax meal + 3 tbsp hot water)
* 3/4 tsp baking powder
* 1/2 tsp baking soda
* 1/2 cup butterscotch chips
* Flaky sea salt
Instructions:
* Preheat oven to 350°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a reusable baking mat. Set aside.
* Use a mixer to combine the butter, coconut oil, and sugars together for 1-2 minutes. Mix in flax egg until fluffy and set aside.
* Combine flour, baking powder, and baking soda together and mix with wet ingredients. Mix in butterscotch chips and roll into 10 balls on the baking mat. Lightly flatten out each cookie dough ball slightly and bake for 12-15 minutes. Let cool for 10 minutes before moving to a cooling rack. Sprinkle with flaky sea salt once cooled and enjoy!
