Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

Main ingredients
  • 1 cup very soft butter (salted butter preferred)
  • 1.25 cups sugar
  • 3 large egg yolks
  • 1.5 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 0.75 teaspoons baking powder
  • 2.5 cups all-purpose flour
  • 10 ounces toffee bits
  • sugar for sprinkling

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat the oven to 350℉ and lightly line 2 sheet pans with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the soft butter and sugar. Stir until creamy and well mixed.
  3. Add the egg yolks and vanilla extract, and stir until combined.
  4. Add the baking soda and baking powder. Stir until incorporated, then add the flour. Mix until all the flour is combined and the dough starts to clump together.
  5. Fold in the toffee bits, stirring until evenly distributed.
  6. Use a 1½-2 tablespoon ice cream scooper to scoop the dough into mounds about 2 inches apart on the prepared sheet pans.
Baking
  1. Bake for 12-16 minutes, or until the cookies are lightly golden brown.
  2. Once out of the oven, sprinkle with sugar if desired. Let the cookies sit on the pan for 4-5 minutes before transferring them to a cooling rack to cool completely.

Notes

Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week. For longer storage, freeze them in a single layer for up to three months.
