Triply Bad Decision Cookies

Like most of the bad decisions I make, these cookies were inspired by equal measures of boredom, hunger, and reality television. "Top Chef: Just Desserts" regularly leaves me feeling as if I do not get some sweets right now I am going to rip your heart out of your chest and eat it so help me God. So, unlike making a decision of a murderous nature, I made these cookies. They're pretty much just the chocolate chips cookies I made last month, but with butterscotch, milk, and white chocolate chips. They're very good with milk (or the blood of your enemies, if you're in to that kind of thing).

I recommend making these cookies whenever you are about to do any of the following: make toast in the bathtub, joust with a narwhal and/or unicorn, jump through a closed second story window a La Quinta Inn in Walla Walla, Washington, shut your sister's head in a car door, read Finnegans Wake, vacuum your oven, talk about Proust in a non-classroom setting without sounding like an asshole, or attempt to eat chicken wings in a ladylike manner.
