Almond Toffee Bars– Buttery shortbread crust with an ooey gooey toffee center, topped with crunchy almonds. Seriously addicting!

I absolutely love toffee. To bad it is chock full of butter, because it is one of my very favorite things. I love finding new ways to use the Heath baking bits. Although, truth be told, I also enjoy them straight out of the bag. 😉

When I found this recipe with toffee bits and sweetened condensed milk, I knew it would be a winner. I used the bits without the chocolate, but I bet the chocolate coated ones would work too.

These bars have a yummy buttery shortbread crust and are nice and chewy on top. I thought the sliced almonds were perfect, but you could substitute another type of nuts if you prefer.

    I added white and semi-sweet chocolate chips to the topping. I was worried they might be overly sweet; but, they are bland and rather tasteless. I can’t figure out if it was an error I made, an error in the recipe or a difference in our taste buds. I’m disappointed and probably won’t make them again.
