By mytastytreasures

Bites of buttery gooodness, adapted from Recipegirl and LandOLakes.

Ingredients

• 1 cup sugar
• 3/4 cup Butter, softened
• 1 egg
• 1 teaspoon vanilla
• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
• 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/2 cup English or almond toffee bits(I used heath toffee bits)
• Sugar

Preparation

Step 1

Heat oven to 350°F. Combine sugar, butter, egg and vanilla in large bowl. Beat at medium speed, scraping bowl often, until creamy. Add flour, baking powder and baking soda; reduce speed to low. Beat until well mixed. Stir in toffee bits by hand.

Shape dough into 1-inch balls. Roll in sugar. Place 2 inches apart onto ungreased cookie sheet. Flatten each with bottom of glass to 1 1/2-inch circles. (If glass sticks, dip glass in sugar.)

Bake for 9 to 1l minutes or until edges are just lightly browned. (DO NOT OVER BAKE.) Sprinkle with sugar while warm. Cool completely. .

TIP: English toffee bits and chips are available in the baking section of large supermarkets.

TIP: Cookies may also be flattened with a fork in a criss-cross pattern.

** To make them even prettier, use sparkling sugar!
