Buttery Toffee Cookies

Chocolate-coated toffee makes these cookies extra good. Your kids will love them.

1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup Butter, softened
1 egg
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
4 (1.4-ounce) bars chocolate-covered toffee, (Cadbury Crunchie) chopped*

Heat oven to 350 degrees F. Combine sugar, butter, egg and vanilla in large mixer bowl. Beat at medium speed, scraping bowl often, until creamy (3 to 4 minutes). Add flour, baking soda and salt; reduce speed to low. Beat, scraping bowl often, until well mixed (1 to 2 minutes). Stir in chopped toffee by hand.

Drop dough by rounded teaspoonfuls onto greased cookie sheets, I like to use greased parchment paper. Bake for 10 to 12 to 14 minutes or until lightly browned. Cool 1 minute; remove from cookie sheets.

*Substitute 1 (6-ounce) package (1 cup) milk chocolate English toffee bits.

Yield: about 3 dozen cookies
