Chocolate Peanut Butter Toffee Bars {Recipe}
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup butter softened
- 1 egg yolk room temperature
- 1/2 cup peanut butter creamy
- 3/4 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 cup old fashioned oats
- 1 1/2 cup flour can use part whole wheat
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 12 oz semi-sweet chocolate chips 2 cups
- 6 oz peanut butter chips 1 cup - I use Reese's
- 1 cup English toffee bits
Instructions
- Line a 9x13 inch baking pan with foil. Leave enough foil at the edges of the pan so you can lift out the candy (similar to fudge).
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
- Beat butter, egg yolk, peanut butter, and sugar on medium speed until the mixture is creamy and smooth.
- Add in the flour, oats, and salt to the mixture and beat on low until the ingredients are combined.
- Press the mixture into the bottom of the pan. Bake the crust for 15 to 20 minutes or until light golden brown in color.
- Remove the pan from the oven and scatter the chocolate and peanut butter chips over the crust. Return to the oven and let it cook for another 1-2 minutes until the chips begin to melt.
- Remove the pan and use a spatula to spread the chocolate and peanut butter over the crust evenly. The chocolate chips and peanut butter chips will finish melting while you spread.
- Finally, sprinkle the English toffee bits over the melted chips and gently press them into place. Be careful because the melted chips are hot.
- Let the pan cool for several hours until the chocolate and peanut butter has set. Use the foil to lift the candy from the pan.
- Cut toffee into desired shapes and store in an airtight container.
