What are Chocolate Chip Toffee Strip Cookies?
The dough is addicting on this chocolate chip cookie recipe. It’s chocolate chip and toffee all wrapped into one cookie. When you make these cookies, the dough is divided out into four sections- each rolled between waxed paper, then they’re baked as giant cookies. Just out the oven, they’re cut into cookie strips. I must say that I really love the way these cookies are created. It’s different than your typical chocolate chip cookie, and that makes it appealing. They’re a delicious chocolate chip cookie with hints of toffee here and there.
I’ve never been one to pass up a cookbook full of cookie recipes. I love cookies of every kind, and they’re definitely my favorite thing to bake. But I suppose the real reason is that I’m terrified that I’ll miss something if I don’t pick up a newly released cookie cookbook. What if they’ve done something with Snickerdoodles that I’ve never heard of before, what if they’re sharing a chocolate cookie recipe that people will oohh and ahhh over, or what if there’s a chocolate chip cookie recipe that is unique and fabulous and must be tried? I can’t stand the thought of missing out on something. Plus, I eagerly read cookie cookbooks like they’re a delicious new novel.
This recipe for Chocolate Chip Toffee Strip Cookies comes from the 2nd Cookies for Kids Cancer book: All the Good Cookies by Gretchen Holt- Witt. From the back cover: Cookies for Kids’ Cancer was founded on the simple belief that no one can resist the allure of a cookie or the desire to help a worthy cause. This people-powered charity has used community bake sales to raise millions of dollars to help fund new therapies for pediatric cancer. The first Cookies for Kids’ Cancer cookbook introduced the cause to tens of thousands of new supporters with a collection of delicious recipes perfect for a bake sale or anytime. Now, in All the Good Cookies, this all-new cookie compendium, you’ll find a wealth of mouthwatering recipes that will satisfy any cookie craving, from Raspberry Thumbprints to Boston Cream Whoopie Pies. And since all of the author’s royalties go to Cookies for Kids’ Cancer, every copy of All the Good Cookies you buy will help kids fighting cancer.
I had a hard time deciding which recipe in the book I wanted to try. Other recipes that sound awesome to me are: Mary Hickey’s Toffee Bars (I guess I have a thing for toffee!), Chocolate Pillows, Benne Burgers, Apricot and Raspberry Thumbprints, Emma’a S’Mores Balls, and Peanut Butter Nanaimo Bars. It’s a great book to have on your cookbook shelf, and purchasing it all goes to a good cause too.
