Toffee Bars are easy candy topped cookie bars that taste like English toffee!

Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter at room temperature
- 1 cup brown sugar packed
- 1 egg yolk
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1 tsp vanilla
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 7 1/4 ounces chocolate candy bars broken into squares, I used Hershey's Special Dark chocolate, but milk chocolate or any other type you like is fine
- 1/2 cup walnut toasted and chopped
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350. Spray and line your pan with a sheet of parchment paper. This is optional but helps to remove the shortbread for easy slicing. You can slice right in the pan if you prefer.
- Cream the butter, brown sugar, egg yolk, salt, and vanilla together.
- Fold in the flour and mix until the dough comes together.
- Pat the dough in the bottom of your prepared pan. Use floured fingers to get it evenly across the surface, and use an offset spatula to smooth it out.
- Bake for 25-28 minutes, just until starting to turn golden.
- As soon as the pan comes out of the oven, arrange the chocolate squares across the surface.
- Wait a few minutes for the chocolate to soften, then, using your offset spatula, spread the melted chocolate over the surface.
- Sprinkle the chopped nuts evenly over the warm chocolate.
- Allow the chocolate to firm up before slicing into 24 bars.
Notes
- * To toast walnuts, just lay them out on a dry baking sheet and toast in a 350F oven for about 12-15 minutes. My new favorite way to toast nuts is in the microwave. Place on a sheet of parchment paper and toast on high for about a minute and a half, to two. Check them because they can burn, and the time will depend on your machine.
