This blog is a collection of my recipes and the recipes of other family members that I love and always have to call and ask for. Please, family, feel free to contribute your yummy recipes. Remember to add labels so we can find the recipes later, where you got the recipe and any modifications you make on your own. Also, if you remember, next time you make a recipe on this blog, take a picture! And then add it to the recipe post.
P.S. Some recipes I would love to see on this blog are: secret sauce, rolls, chocolate pie (mom Cox), peanut butter bars, poppy seed chicken casserole stuff, funeral potatoes (mom Huntington), meat pockets (Aubrey, so I still have this one, but others don't), and other classics, you know what they are :).

Orange Butterscotch Cookies

submitted by Traci

Posted by Picasa
1 1/2 cup flour
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
2/3 cup butter
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar
2 eggs
1 tsp vanilla
1 tsp orange extract OR 2 tablespoons grated orange rind
2 cups quick cooking oats
1 pkg. butterscotch pieces

Mix flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Set aside. In a separate bowl, cream butter and sugars. Add eggs, vanilla, and orange extract and mix until just combined. Add flour mixture, oats and butterscotch pieces and mix until just combined. Bake at 325 degrees for 15 minutes or until lightly browned. Makes 4-5 dozen (that's what the original recipe said, but they must be micro cookies, my batches make about 3 dozen).
