🥓 Main Ingredients

• 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
• 1 cup brown sugar, packed
• ½ cup granulated sugar
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 2 large eggs
• 3 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• ½ teaspoon salt
• 1 cup toffee bits
• 1 cup chocolate chips
• 1 cup chopped nuts (optional)

🌈 Topping

👩‍🍳 Directions
➡️ Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
➡️ In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until smooth. Then mix in the vanilla extract and eggs one at a time until well combined.
➡️ In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add this dry mixture to the butter mixture, mixing until just combined.
➡️ Fold in the toffee bits, chocolate chips, and nuts if you’re using them for extra crunch.
➡️ Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them a couple of inches apart to allow for spreading.
➡️ Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden and the centers are set.
➡️ Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes, then transfer them to wire racks to cool completely.
➡️ If you like, decorate the warm cookies with sprinkles or decorative sugar for a festive touch. Enjoy your cozy treats!
