Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Cream together softened salted butter and confectioners’ sugar until light and fluffy, about 3-5 minutes.
  3. Add the pure vanilla extract and mix on low speed until fully incorporated.
  4. Gradually sift in the all-purpose flour while mixing on low speed until a soft dough forms.
  5. Fold in the mini chocolate morsels and toffee pieces gently with a spatula.
  6. Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough and roll them into 1-inch balls, placing them on the baking sheet.
  7. Flatten each cookie ball lightly with your palm for even baking.
  8. Bake in the preheated oven for 12-14 minutes until lightly golden around the edges.
  9. Allow cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack.
