Toffee and Dark Chocolate Blondies

I don’t always love blondies and prefer brownies ten times out of ten. Blondies can be sort of bland to me – I basically just hunt down the chocolate chips the whole time. Not the case, here, thanks to America’s Test Kitchen spot on base recipe; these were chewy with a super moist center and enough toffee and chocolate chips to make the hunting unnecessary. 

Also – if you typically like making chocolate chip cookies, please just make these! They taste like a delicious cookie but come together a thousand times quicker (by using melted butter and baking all at once). The toffee melted into the bar – something I actually was surprised by – but what I was left with was a more tasty, sweet and salty caramel flavor than a typical blondie would have. This recipe is going on standby for upcoming events.
