Ingredients
| 2 | cups all-purpose flour |
| 1 | tsp. baking soda |
| ½ | tsp. salt |
| 1 | cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter |
| ¾ | cup firmly packed light-brown sugar |
| ¼ | cup sugar |
| 1 | large egg |
| 1½ | tsp. vanilla extract |
| 1 | cup (about 3 bars) chopped Heath Bar candy pieces |
Steps
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- In a small bowl, combine flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, cream the butter with the sugars until smooth, about 2 minutes.
- Add the egg and vanilla to the butter-sugar mixture and beat well. Add the dry ingredients and mix well, using your hands to incorporate all the flour. Mix in the Heath Bar pieces.
- Drop by rounded teaspoonfuls onto baking sheets lined with parchment paper. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the cookies are lightly golden.
- Cool for five minutes on the cookie sheets before removing to a wire rack to finish cooling.
Notes
Culinate editor’s note: Be sure the Heath Bar pieces are chopped fairly small; large chunks can be painfully crunchy. Cookie lovers who prefer a higher chocolate-to-dough ratio may want to add a fourth candy bar, or 1/2 cup chocolate chips, to the mix.
