My friend at CottageMagpie is hosting a Virtual Cookie Exchange. I am so excited to take part because I’m not going to any local cookies exchanges this year and I love to get new recipes. Here is my recipe for Toffee Bars. Try this recipe and then click on the link above to check out everyone else’s recipes.
Toffee Bars
1/2 cup margarine or butter
1/2 cup sugar
1/4 tsp salt
1 cup all purpose flour
1 14oz can (1 1/4 cups) sweetened condensed milk
2 TBS margarine or butter
2 tsp vanilla
6oz semi-sweet chocolate chips
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees
- In a mixing bowl beat the 1/2 cup of margarine or butter, sugar, and salt with an electric mixer on medium to high speed until thoroughly combined.
- Stir in flour.
- Press into the bottom of an ungreased 13x9x2 inch baking pan.
- Bake in a 350 degree oven about 15 minutes or until edges are slightly brown
- In a medium saucepan heat the sweetened condensed milk and the 2TBS margarine or butter over medium heat till bubbly, stirring constantly. Continue to cook and stir for 5 minutes more (mixture will thicken and become smooth).
- Stir in the 2 tsp vanilla
- Spread over baked layer
- Bake for 12-15 minutes or until golden
- Sprinkle chocolate chips over the cookie immediately after removing from the oven. Let stand 2-3 minutes or until softened.
- Spread evenly over top
- Cool, chill 5-10 minutes until chocolate is set.
- Cut into bars
Enjoy these delicious cookies.

I figured this was the fastest way to get to you.
I don’t mind if you link to my blog and I’ll link to yours (of course you might not want to read my blog, LOL)… anyway, just wanted to say that I applied to CQ just now. Thanks for the link. Don’t know if anything will come of it, but hey, who knows. You can privately email me this stuff but I forgot to ask: how much does it pay?
Anyway, neato blog. I did read your other one about Dork (son2) not liking the chicken..that was funny.
Enjoy your Christmas and see you on the 5th.

Yes, these are somewhat like the Skor Bar.
These sound great. Hope you’ll come see my cookies too.
