Tips for Toffee Chocolate Chip Cookies
- Oat Flour: For a unique texture, use oat flour or grind oatmeal in a blender to a coarse flour consistency. It adds richness to the cookies without the texture of an oatmeal cookie.
- Freezing Dough: For convenience, scoop the dough as if you were going to bake it. No need to leave space between the dough balls. Freeze the sheet of dough balls then store them in a freezer bag in the freezer until you’re ready for some fresh baked toffee cookies.
- Baking from Frozen: You can bake from frozen but will need to add a minute or two to the bake time.
Frequently Asked Questions:
Where can I buy toffee bits?
Toffee bits can usually be found in specialty baking stores. Alternatively, you can use Heath or Skor toffee bits which can be found in the baking isle of most grocery stores. Also, you can use Heath or Skor candy bars. Just crush then into small pieces and you’ll be good to go.
I don’t have oat flour. What can I substitute for oat flour?
I’ve never bought oat flour before. I use a blender to mill old fashion oats into flour. If you find yourself without oat flour or oats feel free to use all-purpose flour in it’s place. This will change the flavor slightly but the cookies will still come out delicious.
Storage
- Freezing Dough: Shape and freeze dough balls for easy future baking.
- Baked Cookies: Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days for best freshness.
