    Method
     

    Toffee recipe:
    1. In a cold pot, add butter and sugar.
    2. Turn on the heat to about medium heat.
    3. Stir regularly (about 5–10 minutes) until it reaches a thick caramel texture (see video for reference @ 0:38-1:25 timestamp ).
    4. Turn off the heat and in a parchment-lined pan, pour the hot toffee to set. This should take about 15–20 minutes.
    5. Once cooled, place into a zip-lock bag and smash with a mallet or anything heavy.
    6. Done!
    Cookies recipe :
    1. Cream Butter and Sugar: In a mixing bowl, beat the butter and brown sugar together until creamy and fluffy (2–3 minutes).
    2. Add Wet Ingredients: Mix in the egg and vanilla extract until well combined.
    3. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.
    4. Combine: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing just until combined.
    5. Fold in the chocolate and toffee brittle
    6. Scoop the dough into 1- or 2-tablespoon-sized balls and place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
    7. Top with 2–3 small toffee bits
    8. Freeze the dough balls for 30 minutes or until firm.
    9. Place frozen dough balls directly onto a parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 12–13 minutes, or until the edges are golden, and the centers are still slightly soft (I recommend baking on the top rack)
