Tasty Treat Tuesday: Toffee Bit Chip Cookies


Over the weekend I decided I was going to use these toffee bits that my husband bought me and make some toffee bit chip cookies.  Instead of chocolate chips, I used toffee bits.  Oh my goodness, these cookies are soo devine!  My daughter even loved them.  I gave some to my husband to take with him to work for some of his co-workers as well.

Here is the recipe for the yummy goodness!

Toffee Bit Chip Cookies

1 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 cup unsalted butter, at room temperature
1/2 cup firmly packed light brown sugar
6 tbs. granulated sugar
1 large egg
1 tsp. vanilla extract
2 1/4 cups toffee bit chips

Preheat the oven to 350.  Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or spray it with nonstick spray.  In a medium size bowl, sift the flour, baking soda, and salt together.  Set aside.  In another bowl, using an electric mixer at medium speed, beat together the butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar for about two minutes until it is smooth.  Add the egg and the vanilla extract and mix on low until they are all mixed in.  Gradually add the flour mixture and mix in until incorporated.  Note: Do not keep mixing, do not overmix.  Add the toffee bits and stir together with a wooden spoon.  Again, note, do not overmix, just mix until incorporated.  Chill your dough if it is warm for thirty to forty five minutes.  With a heaping tablespoon of dough, drop the dough onto the prepared baking sheets about six to eight per pan.  Bake the cookies, one sheet at a time until the bottoms and edges of the cookies are lightly browned and the tops feel firm when lightly touched.  If you make small cookies, bake them for about eight to ten minutes, larger cookies bake about ten to thirteen minutes.  Let the cookies cool for about five minutes before transfering them to a wire rack to cool completely.  Makes 15-30 cookies depending on the size.

Enjoy!  Until next time!
