Ingredients

Scale

Base

  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter
  • 1 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour

Topping

  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter
  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1 cup toffee bits
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • Extra powdered sugar for sprinkling

Instructions

  1. Preheat and Prepare: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a 9×13-inch baking dish with parchment paper to ensure easy removal of the bars later.
  2. Make the Butter-Sugar Mixture: Melt 1/2 cup of unsalted butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Stir in brown sugar, granulated sugar, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, and salt until everything is well combined. Remove from heat and let the mixture cool for about 5 minutes to prevent cooking the flour in the next step.
  3. Combine with Flour and Bake: Transfer the cooled butter-sugar mixture to a large bowl and gently stir in 1 cup of all-purpose flour until just combined. Spread this batter evenly into the prepared baking dish. Bake for 20-25 minutes until the base is golden brown and set. Remove from oven and let cool for 10 minutes.
  4. Prepare Chocolate-Toffee Topping: In a small bowl, melt the remaining 1/2 cup of unsalted butter. Stir in semi-sweet chocolate chips and toffee bits until the mixture is smooth, creamy, and well blended.
  5. Cinnamon Sugar Dusting: In a separate small bowl, mix 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon with 1/2 cup powdered sugar. Sprinkle this cinnamon-sugar mixture evenly over the cooled base.
  6. Assemble the Dessert: Pour the melted chocolate-toffee mixture over the cinnamon-sugar coated base and spread it evenly with a spatula. Sprinkle additional powdered sugar on top for a beautiful finish. Allow the dessert to cool completely at room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 1 hour so the topping sets firmly.
  7. Serve: Use the parchment paper to lift the dessert from the baking dish. Cut into squares and serve chilled or at room temperature for the best texture and flavor.

Notes

  • Be sure to let the butter-sugar mixture cool before adding flour to avoid a cooked texture.
  • Use parchment paper for easy removal and clean slicing of the bars.
  • The dessert can be stored in the refrigerator in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
  • For an extra indulgent twist, add chopped nuts or a sprinkle of sea salt on top before chilling.
  • Letting the bars come to room temperature for a few minutes before serving enhances flavor and softness.
