Heathy Cookies

Want some heathy cookies?

Nope, that’s not a typo.

Healthy would be nice, but ……

These are all Heath.

I bought this bag of milk chocolaty toffee bits the other day.

Then I made the mistake and opened the bag to nibble on them.

You know, just for a taste.

Then I didn’t stop nibbling on them.

Every time I did something in the kitchen, I would pinch a few bits.

So I made myself bake something with them tonight before all my bits were bitten.

Toffee bits and a few basics are all you need for these cookies.

Fluffiness.

Dark brown sugar.

Yumminess.

Butter and peanut butter. Yes and yes.

Creamed.

Eggs and vanilla.

Or eyebrows… depending on which way I flip the photo. : )

After mixed, throw in the bits.

Roll and dip them in more toffee bits.

Then bite.

Easy!

And if you want to make them a little sweeter. Maybe for your sweetie.

Just bake them in a heart shaped silicone pan.

It just adds a little bit of love.
