Equipment

  • Large Mixing Bowl
  • Hand mixer
  • Cookie Sheet
  • Saucepan
  • Microwave Safe Bowl

Ingredients

Cookies

  • ½ cup butter softened
  • ½ cup brown sugar
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla
  • 1 egg
  • cup flour
  • ¼ teaspoon baking soda
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • cup chocolate toffee bits crushed and divided

Glaze

  • ¼ cup butter
  • ½ cup brown sugar
  • 3 Tablespoons milk
  • 1⅓ cup powdered sugar

Topping

  • cup milk chocolate chips
  • cup white chocolate chips
  • ½ teaspoon vegetable oil divided

Instructions

  • In a large bowl beat together butter, brown sugar, vanilla, and egg with mixer on medium speed until light and fluffy.
  • On low speed mix in flour, baking soda and salt. Set aside 1/3 of the crushed heath toffee bits for garnish.
  • Stir in the remaining 2/3 of the toffee bits into the cookie dough.
  • Roll into 1 inch balls. Place on ungreased cookie sheet about 1 inch apart.
  • Bake for 10 – 12 minutes at 325 degrees or until tops of cookies feel set when touched.
  • Remove from cookie sheets to cool.

Glaze

  • In a 1 quart saucepan heat the butter, brown sugar and milk over medium/low heat. Stir frequently until mixture just comes to a boil and sugar is dissolved.
  • Stir in powdered sugar and beat until smooth.
  • Immediately frost the top of each cookie.

Topping

  • Place chocolate chips and white chips in separate microwavable bowls.
  • Add 1/4 teaspoon vegetable oil to each bowl of chips.
  • Microwave on high for 1 1/2 to 2 minutes stirring every 30 seconds until melted.
  • Using the tip of a spoon, drizzle melted chocolate and white chocolate over each cookie.
  • Then sprinkle the remaining toffee bits on top.
  • These can be refrigerated so the drizzled chocolate will set up quicker.

Notes

  • In place of the toffee bits you can also use 3 (1.4 ounce) Heath candy bars (crushed).
