Recipe: Fudgy Chocolate Chip Toffee Bars


OMG!  These are the most rich chocolaty yummy delightful goodness that I have ever put in my mouth.  These are not for the faint of heart or for those on a diet.  These are "I have had a bad day and I am going to stuff these in my face to make it go away" bars.  This is what you make your BFF when she needs to vent to you bars. These bars have graham crackers, chocolate chip cookie dough, chocolate chips and sweetened condensed milk.  See what I mean...not for dieters!   

So, make these and savor every single bite but don't blame me when you get on the scale the next day and see the five pounds you gained.  

Enjoy!

  4. Toffee is definitely under-utilized in baking! I am currently on a diet, but I will bookmark this for the next no-longer-on-a-diet-meltdown day!
