Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone liners.
- Whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy. (This will take about 2-3 minutes.) Beat in the egg, egg yolk, and vanilla extract until well combined.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing just until combined or a few small streaks of flour remain. Be careful not to over-mix.
- Gently fold in the toffee pieces.
- Using 2 tablespoons of dough at a time, roll the dough into balls and place on the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 3 inches apart. (These cookies will spread quite a bit, so leave plenty of room.) If you like, add more Heath bits to the tops by sprinkling them on top or dipping each cookie dough ball into the toffee pieces.
- Bake one pan at a time for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers look slightly underbaked. The cookies will continue to set as they cool.
- Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- Store in an airtight container at room temperature up to 5 days.
