[...] remember what became of the first half-that I decided to make cookies, based on that awesomely easy recipe I made almost a year ago. I used mini chocolate chips and they came out really well, [...]

Toffee Blondies:

1 tsp vanilla extract
1/4 tsp salt
1 1/2 C ap flour

1. Preheat oven to 350. Line bottom and sides of an 8″ square baking pan with foil, with a bit of overhang on two sides.

2. In a mixing bowl, cream butter and sugar until smooth. Beat in eggs, vanilla and salt. With mixer on low speed, add flour, and beat until combined. Stir in toffee bits by hand.

3. Spread batter in prepared pan. Bake cake until golden and a toothpick inserted in centre comes out clean, 30-35 minutes. Remove from oven, cool completely in pan.

They are seriously sticky.

The last batch I made, I lined the cookie sheet with parchment paper and sprayed it lightly with cooking spray. Those ones didn’t stick at all and they were very light brown on the bottom.

Next time I make them it’s with confetti cake batter! Weeeee!

And further more, those Skor bits are incredible in blondies. There was a recipe in Martha Stewart’s Everyday Food that I made a bunch of times that is so good, holy.

You know, I have never seen cinnamon chips here, so you win with that. Plus we don’t have Target.

Yeah, Jill, those are my Canadianisms, or perhaps British slang: icing sugar is totally confectioner’s sugar.

The original recipe is here: http://onceuponagourmetgin.blogspot.com/2009/01/cookie-fairy-and-vanilla-toffee-crinkle.html

I think they’d be good with chocolate chips too, but really, the toffee bits are sooooooo good. Even Shannon liked them, but too bad as they are disappearing with me tomorrow!

Oooo, I wanna make those! I have never seen Chipits Skor in the US though. Until the picture loaded I was perplexed as to what icing sugar was. I guess it’s the same as confectioner’s sugar or powdered sugar.
