IMG_7537

If you love toffee, you'll definitely love these cookies. The crunchiness of the toffee adds a texture to these already delicious cookies.  


Chocolate Chip Toffee Cookies
Makes 3-4 dozen 

Ingredients
1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
1/2 cup shortening 
3/4 cup brown sugar
3/4 cup sugar
1 egg plus 1 egg yolk
1 tsp vanilla 
2-1/2 flour 
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp salt 
3/4 cup semi sweet chocolate 

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. 

In a large mixing bowl, cream together margarine, shortening, brown sugar and sugar. Mix in vanilla and egg and egg yolk until combine. Add flour, baking soda and salt and mix on low speed until just incorporated. Stir in chocolate chips and toffee bits. 

Drop by tablespoonful onto a large cookie sheet (preferably lined with a silicone baking mat.) Bake 9-11 minutes or until edges and tops of cookies are just golden. Let rest on the cookie sheet 2 or 3 minutes before removing to a wire rack to cool completely.
