Ingredients

measuring cup

Servings: 48 (makes 48 cookies)

Directions

  • Step 1

    Position a rack in the middle of the oven and preheat to 350 degrees. Line two large sheet pans with parchment paper.

  • Step 2

    In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda and salt.

  • Step 3

    In a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, or in a large bowl with a hand mixer, beat the butter on medium-high speed until fluffy, about 2 minutes. Add the sugars and vanilla, and beat on medium-high until fluffy and thoroughly combined. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Gradually add the flour mixture, beating on low until incorporated. Fold in the toffee bits.

  • Step 4

    Drop by rounded teaspoons onto the prepared pans. Bake one pan at a time, for 9 to 11 minutes, or until slightly brown. Let the cookies cool for a few minutes on the pan, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Serve, or store in an airtight container.
