Chocolate Toffee Cookies Bars

These were quite yummy but I over baked them just a bit so maybe take them out of the oven a little sooner than you think. They are filled with all the good things – toffee, M & M’s, and chocolate chips.

1 cup butter, softened

1 cup packed brown sugar

1 cup sugar

3 eggs, at room temperature

2 teaspoons vanilla

2 cups flour

1 tablespoons corn starch

1 teaspoon baking powder

1 teaspoon salt

1 1/2 cups toffee bits

1 1/4 cups red and green M&M’s

3/4 cups chocolate chips

1 Preheat oven to 350. Spray 13″ by 9″ baking pan with cooking spray.

2 In your mixer bowl, beat butter and sugar on medium until mixture is is lightened in color and texture, about 2 – 3 minutes. Reduce speed to low. Add eggs, one at a time, then vanilla, and beat until smooth, scraping bawl as needed.

3 In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, cornstarch, baking powder, and salt. Add flour mixture to butter mixture in 3 parts, mixing on low speed until fully incorporated. Scrape bowl as needed. Fold in 1 cup M&M’s, 1/2 cup chocolate chips, and 1 cup toffee pieces.

4 Spoon batter into prepared pan, pressing into an even layer. Sprinkle with remaining toffee bits, M&M’s, and chocolate chips over batter.

5 Bake until toothpick comes out clean, about 40 – 45 minutes, Cool for at least 30 minutes before slicing.
