After making toffee, I eventually had to think of something to do with it (besides eating it in the middle of the night or sprinkling it on ice cream). I needed something quick to bake for a friend’s going away party, so I decided to jazz up some chocolate chip cookies. The toffee melts during baking making a delicious, if a little ugly, cookie. You will need batch of vegan toffee for this. To crush into pieces, place some larger pieces of toffee in a plastic bag and just whack it against the counter or pound with a skillet until they are the size you want.

Chocolate Toffee Chip Cookies

3/4 cup sugar
3/4 cup brown sugar
1 cup Earth Balance
egg replacer to equal 2 eggs
1 tsp vanilla extract
2 1/4 cups flour
1 tsp baking soda
pinch salt
2 cups chocoalate chips
1 cup toffee pieces

Preheate oven to 375°.
In a large bowl or bowl of a stand mixer, cream together Earth Balance, sugars, egg replacer, and vanilla. Add flour, baking soda, and salt and mix just to incorporate. Add chocolate chips and toffee and mix just enough to mix through.

Drop dough by rounded tablespoons onto a cookie sheet lined with parchment or a Silpat, leaving about 2 inches between cookies. Bake 8-10 min, until cookies are lightly browned around edges. Allow to cool for a few min on sheet before transfer to a cooling rack.
