Easy Cashew Chocolate Butterscotch Cookies


This easy drop cookie recipe for Cashew Chocolate Butterscotch Cookies is perfect if you need a sturdy cookie to ship through the mail to friends and family.

Did you know that the cashew plant, or tree, is native to the northern part of South America but is was transported to India in the mid 1500's by Portuguese explorers?

Because of this transplant, you can now find cashew plants growing throughout southeast Asia as well as Africa.

Cashews are popular ingredients in many Chinese and Thai dishes and is also popular in the cultures and cuisines of the Philippines, Malaysia, Brazil and many other nations.

Also popular in the United States, I think you're more likely to eat cashews by themselves as a snack or dipped in chocolate.

If you love cashews like we do, you'll fall in love with these chunky cookies.

Testimonials

"I have been researching and trying a number of recipes to make a healthy cookie similar to one that our Gym coffee shop sells for $3.50! This particular recipe was adapted so instead of bars I made thick round cookies and cooked them just underdone so they were soft and chewy. They were a hit with all the girls. Thanks for the great recipe."

Thanks,
