Toffee Bar Cookies are fabulous. These Bar Cookies are a blondie type bar cookie with toffee bits folded into the dough. A plus, the recipe comes together quickly. Even the crumbs will disappear.

Inspiration
I was planning on sharing an autumn salad but the recipe for Toffee Bar Cookies landed in my in-box. I almost forgot about the recipe (I found it in my trash folder) until I saw a vendor at the local farmers market selling toffee. Not just toffee, but bags of broken pieces specifically for baking. Oh, are you making cookies, he asked? Sure! I answered. Obviously this is a regular occurrence at the toffee makers booth. Making toffee laced cookies is not a regular occurrence in my kitchen. But my goodness, these Toffee Bar Cookies are special and worthy of the calorie splurge. Can I say I’m recipe testing for the holidays?
