This weekend I am off to DC to continue our National Doughnut Tour. We have been on a little break, but I am so excited to be back with my partner in crime! (And of course to be eating delicious doughnuts!) In the mean time, I am going to share the recipe for these Toffee Crunch Cookies. These cookies are one of my new favorites. They are the perfect combination of soft and crunchy, and even though toffee can be sticky and annoying at times, the toffee bits in this cookie provide the perfect crunch. Enjoy!
