Easy Toffee Bars have a buttery brown sugar shortbread crust topped with melted chocolate, butterscotch chips and toffee bits. An easy dessert recipe perfect for the holiday season!
In a large mixing bowl, cream the butter, sugar and egg yolk
Stir in the vanilla, flour and salt. Batter will be very thick
Line a 9 x 13-inch metal pan with parchment paper, (recommended) and press the dough into the pan so that it covers the bottom
Bake for 18 to 20 minutes or until crust is light golden brown. It may puff up but will settle when cool
Remove from oven, sprinkle with chocolate chips, and return to oven for 1 minute or until chips start to melt
Remove from oven, use spatula to spread chocolate evenly over crust, and allow to cool slightly
Sprinkle butterscotch morsels and toffee bits over melted chocolate, and allow to cool completely before removing from pan ( lift the parchment paper up) and cutting into bars
Notes
Can grease the pan if not using parchment paper. If using glass baking dish, reduce heat to 325 degrees.Tip -- Spray the baking pan with non stick spray before adding parchment paper to help the paper fit better in the pan.If you can't find toffee bits, used crushed Heath bars for the topping or use crushed nuts.
