Toffee Bars

From the book Betty Crocker Cookbook by Betty Crocker Editors

Prep Time	20 minutes
Cook Time	30 minutes
Total Time	1½ hours
Yield	32 bars

Ingredients

	1	cup butter or margarine, softened
	1	cup packed brown sugar
	1	tsp. vanilla
	1	large egg yolk
	2	cups all-purpose flour
	¼	tsp. salt
	⅔	cup milk chocolate chips or 3 bars (1.55 oz. each) milk chocolate, broken into small pieces
	½	cup chopped nuts

Steps

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
In a large bowl, stir the butter, brown sugar, vanilla, and egg yolk until well mixed. Stir in the flour and salt. Press the dough into a greased 9-by-13-inch pan.
Bake 25 to 30 minutes or until very light brown (the crust will be soft). Immediately sprinkle the chocolate chips over the hot crust. Let stand about 5 minutes or until soft; spread the chocolate evenly. Sprinkle with the nuts.
Cool 30 minutes in the pan on a wire rack. To cut into bars easily, cut into 8 rows by 4 rows while still warm.

Notes

If using self-rising flour, omit the salt.
