Simple, crunchy-sweet cookies with a crinkled top and chewy toffee bits.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
- 1 large egg, beaten lightly
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
- 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup toffee bits (such as Heath Bits o’ Brickle)
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar to coat the dough balls
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Beat the softened butter and 1 1/2 cups sugar together until light and fluffy.
- Add the egg and vanilla, and beat until smooth.
- Whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt in another bowl.
- Gradually add the dry mix to the butter mixture and stir until just combined.
- Fold in the toffee bits gently.
- Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough and roll each into a ball, then coat in the 1/4 cup granulated sugar.
- Place the dough balls on the prepared sheets about 2 inches apart.
- Bake for 10–12 minutes until the edges are light golden and the centers look set.
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack.
Notes
Use unsalted butter to control the salt. Allow the butter to soften but not melt.
