Butterscotch Bites (Gluten Free)

Submitted by mersaydees

"Based on a recipe from Bette Hagman’s, The Gluten-free Gourmet cookbook. The intro says, “An easy-to-make drop cookie that tastes great. These keep well in the cookie jar at home but don’t travel as well as some of the other cookies, since they are moist and chewy and tend to stick together when bumped around.”"
