PEANUT BUTTER BUTTERSCOTCH COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper and set aside.
• In a medium bowl, combine flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt and set side.
• In a large bowl, using a hand mixer or stand mixer, beat butter and peanut butter until smooth and combined. Add both sugars and beat to combine. Beat in egg and vanilla extract. Add the flour mixture all at once and beat until just combined. Stir in about 2/3 cup of butterscotch chips (reserving the rest for topping the cookies).
• Scoop the dough into balls (I use a 1 1/2 tablespoon scoop), and place a couple inches apart on the prepared baking sheets. Press a few of remaining butterscotch chips on top of the dough balls. Bake for 8-11 minutes, until the edges are light golden brown, but the center is still slightly underdone. Immediately sprinkle with sea salt, and place the sheets on wire racks to cool. Repeat with remaining dough, allowing the cookie sheets to cool COMPLETELY before placing dough on them.

ALMOND BUTTERSCOTCH COOKIES CUPS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Have ready 4 overturned teacups or custard cups.
• Melt the butter in a small saucepan with the corn syrup and brown sugar. Stir in the almond extract, almonds, and flour.
• Drop 4 slightly rounded tablespoons of batter, evenly spaced, on the baking sheet and use the back of the spoon to spread them into circles 2 inches (5 cm) across. Bake the cookies for 12 minutes, until they're deep golden brown. Let rest for 30 to 45 seconds, then lift each cookie off the baking sheet with a flexible metal spatula and flip it over onto an upended teacup. (If the cookies get too firm to shape, return them to the oven for 30 seconds to soften them.)
• Let the baking sheet cool, then repeat with the remaining batter.
• Storage
• Store these cookie cups in an airtight container. They are best served the day they're made. The batter can be made and refrigerated up to 1 week in advance. Let it come to room temperature before baking.
