In the bowl of a stand mixer, cream butter and sugars together until light and creamy, about 5 minutes. Add the eggs and vanilla extract. Beat for an additional 2 minutes.

Slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients. I add ½ cup at a time. Mix until flour is just combined. Stir in the chocolate chips, butterscotch chips, toffee bits, and nuts.

Drop about 2 Tbsp. (or smaller) of dough onto prepared baking sheet, placing the cookies 2-inches apart. Bake for 12 minutes or until the edges are slightly golden brown.

Remove from oven and allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 2-3 minutes. Transfer cookies to a wire cooling rack and cool completely.
