In large saucepan, on medium high heat, add butter, sugar and milk. Bring to a boil, and boil for a complete full minute. Remove from heat and stir in vanilla, salt and butterscotch morsels.
Stir for about 1-2 minutes, the butterscotch won't completely melt, it's okay. Fold in oatmeal.
Drop by large cookie scoop (2 tablespoon) onto a large sheet of parchment paper. Allow to set and cool, about 15 minutes. Store in airtight container. Enjoy.
Notes
Store uneaten cookies in an airtight container at room temperature.
Quick oats. These are more finely processed than old-fashioned oats, helping the cookies stick together without flour. DO NOT cook the oatmeal before adding to the recipe!
The butterscotch morsels won't fully melt when you stir them into the butter mixture. That's okay! As long as they are softened and gooey, the dough will come together well.
These cookies are very sweet. More like a fudge with oatmeal than a traditional baked cookie. A little goes a long way when it comes to no bake scotchies!
