  • Total 1 hr 15 min
  • Servings 32

Ingredients

  • 1 cup butter, softened
  • 1 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1 egg yolk
  • 2 cups Gold Medal™ all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 2/3 cup milk chocolate chips
  • 1/2 cup chopped nuts, if desired

Steps

  • 1
    Heat oven to 350°F. In large bowl, mix butter, brown sugar, vanilla and egg yolk. Stir in flour and salt. Press in ungreased rectangular pan, 13x9x2 inches.
  • 2
    Bake bars 25 to 30 minutes or until very light brown (crust will be soft). Immediately sprinkle chocolate chips on hot crust. Let stand about 5 minutes or until chocolate is soft; spread evenly. Sprinkle with nuts.
  • 3
    Cool bars 30 minutes in pan on wire rack. For bars, cut into 8 rows by 4 rows.

  • For easiest cutting, cut Toffee Bars while they're still warm.
  • Three bars (1.55 ounces each) milk chocolate, broken into small pieces, can be substituted for the milk chocolate chips in this chocolate Toffee Bars recipe.
  • To soften butter, cut in small pieces and leave at room temperature. A faster method is to microwave butter in 5 second intervals turning the butter frequently so butter is softened but not melted.
