Method
 

Step‑by‑Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine unsalted butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar. Beat on medium speed until smooth.
  3. Add one egg and vanilla extract to the butter-sugar mixture and mix on low speed until well combined.
  4. Gradually mix in the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt until just combined to form a soft dough.
  5. Fold in the butterscotch chips and semisweet chocolate chips until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
  6. Scoop tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them 2 inches apart.
  7. Bake in the preheated oven for 10-13 minutes until the edges are golden brown.
  8. Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes, then sprinkle sea salt and transfer to wire racks.
  9. Store cooled cookies in an airtight container for 3-4 days or freeze for up to 30 days.
