I don't believe you would have to replace the salted peanuts with anything. Okay, I suppose you could increase the amount of butterscotch chips if you wanted to, but it's not necessary.

Does anyone know of a recipe similar to chocolate chip cookies but with butterscotch chips instead?
I believe you could use any cookie recipe calling for chocolate chips and substitute butterscotch chips. I've done it many times. The recipe I've used most often is the one that was widely circulated some years ago as the recipe for Mrs. Fields Chocolate Chip Cookies. It is not authentic but it comes pretty close to the taste and texture of Mrs. Fields cookies. I'll post it if anyone is interested.
I like peanuts but not in cookies. Could I adapt this recipe? I don't know what I would replace the peanuts with, if anything.
Just make the tollhouse choc chip recipe but substitute butterscotch chips. Best cookie I make is an oatmeal cookie, with cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, alspice, coconut, walnuts and butterscotch chips. People beg for these cookies.

How about substituting salted sunflower seeds (shelled!)? You would still get the neat sweet/salty combination. Lynn from Fargo

Recipe please! =)

I don't really use a recipe but do the following:
I follow the basic cookie recipe on the Quaker Oats box. Mash about 1 cup of walnuts into a paste and substitute it for part (about 1/4 c.) of the shortening. Use real butter as the shortening, and add the spices listed above to taste (mostly cinnamon and nutmeg), as well as a little vanilla. Then, stir in the oats (I use the Old Fashioned oats, not the quick ones), and the above additives (chips, coconut, chopped walnuts) and form into soft balls - flatten them a little. Place on greased cookie sheet and bake at 360F until done - you want to underbake them just a tad. They spread quite a bit, so leave plenty of room on the cookie sheet.
Next time I make them, I will measure my ingredients and then post the recipe. 🙂
