1 cup white sugar
1 cup brown sugar

Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Cream butter and sugars until light and fluffy. Beat in eggs and vanilla.

4. Drop dough on greased or parchment paper lined cookie sheets and bake for 11-12 minutes. Sprinkle warm cookies with sea salt.
*This makes a TON of cookies – so half the recipe, or be prepared to have a stocked freezer! 
Those cookies look SO GOOD!!! I love love love fresh chewy cookies! Especially with a cold glass of milk. Plus, I am a cookie dough eater!
Looks like a delicious cookie. I will have to make some soon.
These sound absolutely amazing!!!!
These look declicious! YUM!
YUM!!!!! I am going to make these tonight!!!!!

This is almost identical to the recipe I made last night. I found mine on another blog I visit regularly, and they were entitled, “Way to a Man’s Heart” cookies. Instead of butterscotch chips, there was 1 package choco chips, 1 package toffee bits and 1 cup coconut. YUM-O! Thank goodness I hit the gym both yesterday and today. Hope you feel better!
These cookies look AMAZING!! How did your 3 day decorative cookies go?? Did they ever get completed since you were sick?? I’d love to see pictures of those.
Wowzers delicious!! I am definitely making that my next cookie recipe!
That looks like an amazing cookie! I love oatmeal cookies!
They look amazing!! I think I’d double the recipe, then I might have enough for my mum to take into work :p (the people she works with are like gannits, they eat A LOT!)
Thanks for the recipe!

ok, I will have to shamelessly admit that I have made these cookies (minus the heath chips) a total of 3 times since I discovered this recipe. And, I’ll need to add to my admission that I’ve only shared with co-workers once. (they all loved them, of course).
wow. That sprinkle of salt on top is the most brilliant thing in the world. I love these cookies!!! Thank you!!!!

Made these this weekend. SO yummy! I am gonna blog about ‘em tomorrow and give you lots of credit!!
Thank you for the wonderful recipe! I have made these twice in the last week. The first batch was devoured by my family (mostly me), and the second batch I divided into four containers to give to people as little thank-yous for the everyday things they do for me. Everyone raved about them!!
This recipe looks amazing. Do you know of anyway to turn it into a low-fat recipe?
I made these for my daughter’s softball team. I am now have 18 daughters instead of 2. This is super wonderful, thank you so much!!!

[...] I got these at Lunds and they did not disappoint. They are right up there with the cookies Molly made last week. Thankfully, I restrained myself today and only had one. Wish I could have exercised a little self-control with the IGE cookies! [...]

I made these last week and they are the “ultimate” – I love them! Chewy and lightly crispy – the toffee melts some and – oh my just plain sinful! My sweetheart wants them again next week!
