These just changed my life and blew my mind at the same time! I love how they’re gooey when they come out of the oven but keep baking as they cool to the most perfect consistency! Thank you thank you thank you!!

I agree with Marly on the disaster part of this. I’m okay in believing the flour level is right, but good grief. I made 1.5 batches of this so my husband could take some to school tomorrow and he’s going to have to fend for himself. I have a gigantic batch of mush in my kitchen now – these things didn’t bake at all, even after I left them in the oven for around 20 minutes.

I ADOREE these cookies. I made them this weekend with semi-sweet chocolate morsels instead of walnuts and they trued out SO SO good.

I am making a quintuple batch of these yummy cookies and was thinking of using Heath English Toffee Bits – also called Bits of Brickle Toffee Bits. Should be a time saver from opening 25 candy wrappers and chopping them up. The only difference (and I say “only” loosely) is that the toffee bits are not chocolate covered and of course the candy bars are. This recipe has so much chocolate in it – do you think the cookie will miss the chocolate from the candy?
BTW – I use these toffee bits in everything! Brownies, cookies, banana bread etc. They are a fabulous addition to make your favorite baked goods just a little better.

I made my first batch on saturday evening and oh my were they great! I kept in the fridge for at least an hour and then it was super easy to scoop out with a mini ice cream scoop. Definitely sprinkle some sea salt on top – the contrast is amazing. I will make another batch tonight but this time with half the walnuts and adding some chocolate chips :)

foodlover — I think it will be just fine three days after making it. Longer than that, I’d keep the log in the freezer. The length of time that the cookies will keep is irrelevant, because they simply won’t. :) (But otherwise, I’d say a week.)

I couldn’t find heath bars, so I found an English toffee recipe and made my own, broke it up and used it in the cookie. My homemade toffee melted while baking and oozed out and puddled at the bottom of each cookie. No big deal! The cookies were still very, very delicious. I made a full batch, but I wish I’d made a double one!

(p.s. I was really surprised how well a low-butter, high-egg cookie worked.)

I started a cookie exchange 8 years ago when I first moved into the area in hopes that I would meet some new friends who loved to bake & cook as much as I do. Now after 8 years, the cookie exchange has turned into the “Cookie Throwdown”. On average each year we have about 40 women who bring their best cookie recipe to the judges who decide who will be the “Cookie Queen” of Bucks County. We judge on best tasting, best presentation, & best all around cookie. I have found that when you throw a tiara into the mix, everyone brings their “A” game! This year I am entering your chocolate toffee cookie as my favorite cookie recipe. it is AMAZING! The batter alone could take the tiara!

PS-Let me know if you ever want to be part of the Throwdown! : )
