Ingredients

  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 3/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup toffee bits (such as Heath Bits o’ Brickle)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Cream together softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Beat in eggs one at a time, then mix in vanilla extract.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add to wet ingredients and mix until combined.
  5. Stir in toffee bits until evenly distributed.
  6. Scoop dough into tablespoon-sized balls and place about 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheet.
  7. Bake for 10–12 minutes, until edges are golden and centers look just set.
  8. Let cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • Add chopped pecans or walnuts for extra texture.
  • A pinch of cinnamon adds warmth to the flavor.
  • Press extra toffee bits into the tops of the cookies before baking for more crunch.
  • Drizzle with melted chocolate for a fancier version.
