These Butterscotch & White Chocolate Chip Oat Drops are a soft, flavourful nut-free cookie perfect for lunches!
It’s winter big time right now where I live! We are under a heavy snowfall warning, and could get up to 25cm of snow in total! Not to mention that tonight we could see -20 degrees C temperatures. It’s so wintery and beautiful! No really, it is! 😉 I love this weather around the holiday season (but ask me how I feel about it come March…now that’s a different story).
Anyway, it’s the perfect kind of weather for making cookies! Cozy, warm, gooey cookies!
These cookies are so great! They’re soft and flavourful, and they make a perfect nut-free snack for the kids lunch boxes! I also love this recipe because it makes a huge batch! Lots for eating, lots for freezing!

November 8, 2012 at 6:29 PMThis recipe sounds delicious and I can’t wait to try it. But as the mother of two kids who are peanut and tree nut allergic, I find it impossible to find butterscotch chipits that are safe for my kids. Every label I have seen says they “may contain traces of peanuts or nuts”. If you know of some safe butterscotch chipits for peanut/nut allergic people, please let me know.

December 16, 2014 at 9:27 AM[…] Butterscotch and White Chocolate Chip Oat Drops – from A Pretty Life 2012 (First, adding coconut is a must!! Second with the addition of Butterscotch and White Chocolate they were a little too sweet for me, so next time I would try adding 3/4 cups total of a mixture of the two chips. Otherwise they were a delicious twist on the traditional oatmeal raisin cookie) […]
