Amazing Butterscotch Cookies!!!

   Making a quick post for you guys since I have to get up and work tomorrow. I made my all time favorite cookies to bring the kids for Christmas. 
Put this on your Christmas cookie list, you won't regret it! 



What you'll need: 

- 1 1/2 sticks softened salted butter
- 1/3 brick softened cream cheese
- 3/4 cup white sugar
- 3/4 cup packed brown sugar
- 2 large eggs 
- 2 teaspoons baking soda
- 1 teaspoon vanilla 
- 3 cups flour
- 3/4 cup butterscotch chips
- 3/4 cup white chocolate chips
- 1 1/2 cups salted cashews

   Preheat oven to 350 degrees. 
Mix softened butter and cream cheese with white and brown sugar until light and fluffy. 


    Mix in baking soda and vanilla.


   Beat in one egg at a time. 


   Mix in one cup flour at a time. 


   Now it's time to put some muscle into it. Your going to mix in your butterscotch and white chocolate chips by hand. 


   Measure out 1 1/2 cups of salted cashews and chop them up a little with your knife. Add to the cookie dough and stir by hand. 


   Roll into walnut sized balls and arrange on a greased baking tray. You will need to press your cookie dough balls down with your hand. You do this because they don't spread out while they cook so you can place them fairly close together. 


   Bake for 10-14 minutes. Pull your cookies out right before they look done and let them sit on the tray for about 3 minutes and they will continue to cook. These cookies don't brown on top so make sure you are checking them. 


   These cookies are so amazing!!! 
I hope you guys enjoy!! 

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to you all!!
