A batch of freshly baked butterscotch pecan cookies with a golden-brown color and a soft, chewy texture. The cookies are studded with gooey butterscotch chips and crunchy pecan pieces, with some chips slightly melted on the surface. They are arranged on a rustic wooden table, with a few cookies stacked and others cooling on a wire rack. Whole pecans, a drizzle of caramel, and a linen napkin complete the cozy, homemade presentation. Warm, natural lighting enhances the inviting, comforting feel.
