My favorite new cookie recipe: Chocolate Toffee Cookies
Are you a chocolate person? This here is a chocolate- lovers cookie. It’s the cookie that chocolate people crave, long-for, desire and can’t get enough of. So is it for you? I hope so. I made enough to share. And I’m happy to give them all to you since I’m more of a vanilla girl 🙂
Even though I lean toward vanilla, I enjoy these cookies very much. My favorite part is the crispy exterior crackly top. A bite into the cookie will divulge a soft and chewy interior with toffee crunch here and there. Oh, and chocolatey… so very chocolatey!
It’s kinda tough not to eat a whole pile of these. But that’s okay… I won’t tell!
Chocolate Toffee Cookies
Ingredients
- 8 ounces bittersweet chocolate, coarsely chopped
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- ¾ cup packed light brown sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- ½ teaspoon baking powder
- ⅛ teaspoon salt
- ¼ cup all purpose flour
- 1 cup toffee bits
- 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly grease two baking sheets (or line with parchment paper or silpat mats).
- Melt the chocolate and butter together (using microwave or in a bowl set over simmering water), stirring until smooth. Set the mixture aside to cool.
- In a medium bowl, use an electric mixer to combine the brown sugar, eggs, vanilla, baking powder and salt. Beat in the melted chocolate, then stir in the flour, toffee bits and chocolate chips.
- Drop the dough by the tablespoonful onto the prepared baking sheets. Bake the cookies for about 12 minutes, or until the tops are cracked and dry but the cookies are still soft to the touch. Don't overbake! They'll become more firm as they cool.

Huge chocolate lover over here! So does that mean I should start stalking the post office in wait of my package of these cookies?? 😉
Chocolate & toffee together? Oh boy! And that crackle-y top? To die for. Pinned!
I will be craving these cookies all day! They look fabulous!
Thanks for your fast response. Will be making these tonight!
Looks delish. Though I’m wondering if the amount of flour is a typo. A 1/4 of cup seems to be not enough flour to yield 30 cookies. Please comment. Thanks. 🙂
Yes, just 1/4 cup of flour is correct!
What gorgeous cookies. Great pictures.
I love chocolate and I think these are going to be the next cookie I make.
Me! I am a chocolate person! I’ll take ALL of them!
Oh man, these look so chewy!!! Definitely delicious!
I am ALL about chocolate cookies. Really, chocolate anything! And that crackly top? That is what my cookie dreams are made of. Clearly, I need 12 of these. Pinned!
They look so good! I’ve seen this recipe before in the King Arthur cookbook and have always wondered what they’d taste like. Clearly, pretty amazing!!
