  • 0.5 cups brown sugar Light brown sugar works too.
  • 0.25 cups granulated sugar Essential for sweetness and caramelization.

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line an 8x8-inch baking dish with parchment paper.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition, then stir in the vanilla extract.
  4. Gradually mix in the all-purpose flour until just combined; the dough should be slightly sticky.
  5. Fold in the toffee bits gently using a spatula.
  6. Spread the cookie dough evenly into the prepared baking dish.
  7. Bake for 25-30 minutes until the edges are golden brown and a toothpick comes out with a few moist crumbs.
