Butterscotch Walnut Cookies

Everyone loves warm cookies straight from the oven. Although our first love will always be chocolate, butterscotch is a great way to create the occasional switch up. Everyone we shared these with gave us immense compliments. We cannot wait to make a batch of these for snacking on with cocoa during cold winter evenings.
