Butterscotch No-Bake Cookie Tips

How should you store Butterscotch No-Bake Cookies?

Like other no-bake cookies, this butterscotch version should last up to a week in an airtight container. To keep them from sticking together, place a sheet of waxed paper between each layer.

Can you use different types of oats in Butterscotch No-Bake Cookies?

You can swap the old-fashioned oats for quick-cooking oats, like we do in these Cherry No-Bake Cookies, but there will be a difference in size and texture.

What are some variations or substitutions I can make in Butterscotch No-Bake Cookies?

To make a chocolate variation, use chocolate pudding mix and semisweet chocolate chips instead of the butterscotch ones. If you love chocolate and peanut butter together, try these Chocolate Peanut Butter No-Bake Cookies instead!
