Instructions

Cookies:

  1. Preheat your oven to 375 degrees.

  5. Place your mixture in the fridge for 10-15 minutes to get a bit firm.

Topping:

  1. Melt your chocolate in a small bowl in the microwave in 15 second intervals stirring after each time.
  2. Place your melted chocolate in a Glad bag and snip the tip then drizzle all over your cookies. Immediately sprinkle on your toffee bits while the chocolate is still melted.
  3. If using a glaze mix together 1 cup of icing sugar and a few drops of water at a time until you get a glaze that is not too thick and not too runny.
  4. Brush on glaze and then immediately sprinkle on festive sprinkles!
