Instructions

In a large bowl, cream together softened butter, brown sugar, and sugar until well blended.
Add the egg and vanilla extract, mixing until combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, salt, and oats.
Gradually beat the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined.
Gently fold in the butterscotch chips.
Cover the dough and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Scoop out 1 1/2 tablespoons of dough and place on the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between each cookie.
Bake for 10-13 minutes until the centers are soft; the cookies will firm up as they cool.
Let the cookies sit for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack.

Notes

Ensure butter is softened for easier mixing.
Allowing the dough to chill will enhance the flavor and prevent spreading.
Store cookies in an airtight container for freshness.
