Toffee & Chocolate Chip Blondies




 So this weekend, I was inspired by Heath Toffee Bars. They are soooo good:) I mean who doesn't love toffee covered in milk chocolate?






I decided to make some toffee and chocolate chip blondies and let me just say  that were just amazing! They were so soft and chewy like regular blondies, but the toffee added a nice little crunch that made them over the top.

They were so good my family finished them in a heart  beat!






 Its a pretty simple recipe.



Instead of chopping up actual Heath bars, I just used Heath toffee bits and some chocolate chips.


















It is probably better to mix the actual toffee bits and chips with a wooden spoon instead of the mixer.




Pop in the oven until golden brown........




and voilĂ !



Serve with a scoop of ice cream and you've got perfection!

This is new....

Hi! My name is Rachell and this is my first blog! I'm really excited to start this and to start posting all my baking adventures. I love to bake and cook, especially with my mom. My goal is to bake or cook something at least once a week. I would love to do it more often but everyone is so busy these days and it seems as if there's just not enough time in the day. But to start off, I should tell you about myself and this blog I guess. I am 19 years old and I discovered this new hobby not too long ago. I love to try baking new things so I am always on the search for something different. However, my family...not so much. My brother always complains why I didn't just make regular chocolate chip cookies instead of my new version. But, its okay there's always a first time for everything:)  I can't wait until this weekend  to start baking and cooking. So stay tuned!
