Chocolate Toffee Cookies

YUMM.. It's Friday and 4th of July weekend. Why not start if off baking delicious chocolate toffee cookies? Here is what you will need.


1/2 cup all purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 pound bittersweet or semi-sweet chocolate
1/4 cup {1/2} stick unsalted butter
1 3/4 cups {packed} brown sugar
4 large eggs
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
5 1.4 ounce chocolate-covered toffee bars {Heath works just fine, broken up} 
1 cup of walnuts, toasted, chopped

Combine flour, baking powder and salt in a small bowl; whisk to blend. 

 Stir chocolate and butter on top of boiling water or use a double boiler. Mix until melted and smooth. Remove from over water, cool mixture to lukewarm. 

 Using an electric mixture, beat sugar and eggs in a bowl until thick, about 5 minutes. 

Then add in the chocolate and butter mixture. {blend well} 

 Now break up the heath bars. {I like keeping them in semi big chunks that way when you take a bite, you get a large chunk of delicious toffee}

Now add in the flour mixture, walnuts and toffee. Chill the batter for 45 minutes, until firm. 

Once you have chilled the batter, preheat oven to 350 Degrees. {bake for 12-15 min} Line 2 large baking sheets with parchment paper {or in my case one non-stick baking sheet} bake the cookies until the tops of them are dry and cracked but the cookies themselves are still soft to the touch {they will keep cooking after taken out of the oven}

 The end Result!!! Definitely for the toffee lovers!! YUM
