I love toffee. Anytime I see a recipe with toffee in the title, it goes right into my to try pile. Symphony bars were on sale a few weeks ago, so I stocked up on them. When I came across this recipe for easy toffee bars, I knew I had to try it.

The original recipe called for melting Hershey bars on top and adding pecans. I thought Symphony bars would just kick it up a notch. I used the ones with the toffee chips in them, and I thought they were fabulous.
 
They have a nice rich flavor from the brown sugar, and the chocolate with toffee on top is just perfect.
 

Quick and Easy Toffee Bars - only seven ingredients, and so tasty. Melted candy bars make these toffee bars extra yummy!

 
I like to add sliced almonds to the top, but they are also fantastic with just the chocolate. Who knew that 7 ingredients could taste so good?

TOFFEE BARS

Yield: 2 dozen

Quick and Easy Toffee Bars

Quick and easy toffee bars. Chewy and buttery. A perfect bar for beginning chefs.

Simple brown sugar bars topped with melted chocolate bars and sliced almonds.

Prep Time 10 minutes
Cook Time 15 minutes
Total Time 25 minutes

Ingredients

  • 1 cup soft butter
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 1 egg yolk
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 2 cups flour
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 3 4.25oz Symphony bars, chopped
  • Sliced almonds (optional)

Instructions

  1. Cream the butter and brown sugar in a mixing bowl. Beat in the egg yolk and vanilla. Stir in the flour and salt.
  2. Press into a greased 15x10" jelly roll pan. It will be a very thin layer. I like to wet my hands down to make the job a little easier.
  3. Bake at 350° for about 15 minutes. Sprinkle with chopped Symphony bars. Wait a couple minutes for the chocolate to soften, then spread it evenly.
  4. If desired, sprinkle with sliced almonds. Cool before cutting.
