Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter
- 1 cup, packed light brown sugar
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 1.5 cups milk chocolate chips
- 1 cup toffee bits
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter and light brown sugar until light and fluffy. This should take about 2-3 minutes with an electric mixer.
Add the vanilla extract and mix until incorporated.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until a soft dough forms.
Press the dough evenly into the prepared baking pan, smoothing the surface with a spatula or your hands.
Bake the dough in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown. Remove from the oven and place the pan on a wire rack.
While the cookie base is still hot, sprinkle the milk chocolate chips evenly over the top. Let them sit for about 5 minutes to melt.
Using a spatula or the back of a spoon, gently spread the melted chocolate into an even layer.
Sprinkle the toffee bits over the melted chocolate, pressing down lightly to ensure they stick.
Allow the bars to cool completely at room temperature, or place them in the refrigerator to set the chocolate faster.
Once the chocolate has fully set, slice the toffee bars into squares or rectangles and serve. Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
