Instructions

    1. Preheat oven to 325F°. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
    2. Place the butterscotch chips in a blender and pulverize them to a coarse powder. Set them aside.
    3. In the bowl of your stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment beat the butter, powdered sugar, and salt together until smooth, 1-2 minutes. Add in the blended butterscotch chips and mix until incorporated.
    4. Turn the mixer to low and add in the flour until combined. The mixture will be dry.
    5. Scoop 1 tablespoon of the dough out and roll it into a ball. Place on the prepared baking sheet. Repeat with all the dough, spacing the balls about 1 1/2 inches apart.
    6. Bake the cookies for 17-20 minutes until lightly golden at the edges.
    7. Remove from the oven and transfer them to a wire rack to cool.

Glaze

    1. Mix the powdered sugar, vanilla, and milk together with a whisk.
    2. Add in the pecans. Top each cookie with about 1 tablespoon of the glaze.
    3. Allow the glaze to set up before serving.

Notes

  • You can glaze the cookies warm or cool. I like to glaze them when they are completely cooled because the glaze won’t melt off as much. If you glaze them warm you will have a much thinner glaze on the cookie.
