Cooking instruction summary:
In a saucepan, over medium heat, melt the butter. Whisk the butter continuously, and as it cooks it will begin to foam and turn to a golden brown. The golden brown will slowly change to a deeper brown and will start to smell nutty. Once this happens, turn the heat off and immediately transfer it to a bowl to keep the butter from burning. Let it sit and cool for a few minutes. In the bowl of a stand mixer, beat the butter and sugars together on medium speed, until combined. Add in the egg, egg yolk, vanilla, and yogurt, mixing together. Add in the dry ingredients, and slowly mix until the flour is just blended in -- don't over mix! Finally, stir in the chocolate chips, mini chocolate chips, and butterscotch chips. Cover the mixing bowl with plastic wrap and chill for two hours in the fridge. Remove dough from fridge, preheat oven to 350 degreed. Then, with a cookie scoop, scoop out the cookie dough on the cookie sheet, spacing each one about two inches apart. Bake cookies for 12-15 minutes, or until cookies are just golden around the edges. Remove from oven and let cool for 2 minutes on the cookie sheet, before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
