Quick and Easy Toffee Bars . . . you can whip up a batch of these chewy chocolate topped bars in just minutes!
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.
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?

Quick and Easy Toffee Bars
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
Cream the butter and brown sugar in a mixing bowl. Beat in the egg yolk and vanilla. Stir in the flour and salt.
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.
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.
If desired, sprinkle with sliced almonds. Cool before cutting.
