So, I bought a bag of Heath bits by accident. Well, not really an accident. I bought a bag because it was on sale (isn’t that good enough reason??) and I thought, “one day I might need these!”
That day never came and I eventually had to search for a recipe to rid myself of this bag of Heath bits. Best part is that I’ve never had a Heath bar, so I could only assume what these bits tasted like. Luckily they were delicious, and I found this awesome recipe that used the entire bag. My husband described these as “the best cookies ever.” Personally, I’d probably add more chocolate chips, but these are the most amazingly moist and sweet cookies!
Cream together the butter, peanut butter and brown sugar.
Add the eggs and vanilla.
With a whisk, whisk together the flour, baking soda and salt.
Combine both mixtures and add the toffee bits and chocolat chips.
Mix until well combined.
Form into 1 1/2 inch balls on a greased baking sheet.
I baked these for 12 minutes, the original recipe said 10.
What came out was an AMAZING, OOEY GOOEY cookie!!!
Just delicious and insanely soft!!!
