Toffee Bits Cookies

It’s been over 9 months since we moved to Arkansas. Everyone in San Francisco said it’s going to be a big change. Everyone in Little Rock also said it’s quite a big change. There are things that I gradually miss about San Francisco. There are differences between San Francisco and Little Rock, but things are great here. Our work couldn’t be better, we’ve made great friends, and we just purchased our first house last week! We are moving in this weekend, so I will be busy for a little while – we all know how joyful the moving process is, don’t we?

To be honest with you, I haven’t taken photos of sweets that I make for the past 6 months. The excuses are move, new job, new city, and I can go on and on, but I better stop here. Photos of Toffee Bits Cookies are from last year or two. I feel bad on using old photos, but I still have a few more sweets that I can share with you from the past. One thing that I can promise is that I will make more sweets and share more recipes & tips with you very soon in my own kitchen. That’s really exciting.

Serving: Personally, toffee bits cookies are best when they are served warm. A Glass of milk is highly recommended to serve with.

Storing: Store leftover cookies in a airtight container at room temperature.

 

 

ALEXA’S TIPS

• Softening Butter: 30-60 minutes are the proper time to get the right consistency of softened butter.
  
• Measuring ingredients: Measure ingredients before you start baking. It really saves time overall.
  
• Adding extra sugar: Since toffee bits are already sweet, I reduced amount of sugar and brown sugar. If you would
