Ingredients
  

  • ½ cup unsalted butter 8 tablespoons
  • ¾ cup light brown sugar
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 cups all purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 cup Heath bits You can also use Heath bars, or Skor bars, chopped into small pieces (or Heath English Toffee Bits).

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 350℉ and line a cookie sheet with parchment paper.
  • Add the butter and sugars to the bowl of a stand mixer or large bowl, using an electric mixer, and cream the ingredients for 3-4 minutes until light and fluffy.
    Scrape the sides and bottom of the bowl as needed.
  • Add the egg and vanilla to the creamed mixture and mix until fully combined.
  • Add the flour, baking powder, and baking soda, to a small bowl, and whisk to combine, then add it to the mixture and mix just enough to combine.
  • Add the heath bar bits and fold them into the cookie batter.
  • Scoop out the dough (about 2 tablespoons per cookie) and place it on the prepared parchment-lined cookie sheet. Repeat the process until all the cookie dough has been used.
  • Place the cookies on the middle shelf of the preheated oven and bake for 10-12 minutes.
  • Remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool on the pan for 2-3 minutes before moving them to a cooling rack to finish cooling.

Notes

If you would like there to be obvious heath bar bits on the top of the cookie, use extra heath bar bits to top the cookies before baking.
