Soft Maple Cookies with Milk Chocolate Toffee bars and extra toffee bits! These are perfect the next time you crave cookies!
I can’t begin to tell you how delicious these cookies taste! okay fine, let me begin, but you must listen!
THESE COOKIES TASTE INCREDIBLE.
Sorry. It needed to be heard. One of my favorite cookies on the blog here is Maple Bacon cookies. Apparantly though some of you get a little freaked out by adding bacon to your desserts. I don’t understand this. People eat bacon with pancakes and syrup, which is essentially sweet, which is really just dessert for breakfast.
Right?
So to make some of you feel better about the maple cookies, I thought, who doesn’t love toffee? I just so happened to have a couple Green and Black’s Chocolate Toffee Bars on hand for this recipe. These are not like Heath bars. Don’t be mistaken. These are rich chocolate bars with bits of toffee in them. If you can’t find the Toffee bars, I would suggest you just add a good Milk chocolate bar and extra toffee bits (like Heath). The good quality chocolate is just as important as the toffee in these cookies.
And the maple. Oh the maple….Just promise to try these before you judge!
Speaking of Maple Bacon cookies, don’t they LOOK delicious? Yes? Well try them, because they TASTE great too!
Not sure about the Maple and Toffee combination? This Pumpkin Cupcake is topped with a Maple Toffee frosting. And it is one of my most requested fall cupcakes!
Just looking for toffee? I understand. This is our recipe for homemade English Toffee. We make POUNDS of this every year! Now you can too!

I have a soft brown sugar cookie recipe that uses both cornstarch and maple extract in it – love it! I bet the toffee adds even more butteriness…I love this flavor profile and so many of my fave cookies are in this ‘family’. Throw in some molasses and I’m even better
Averie @ Averie Cooks recently posted..Unreal Candy Giveaway
I’m not a huge molasses fan, it tends to take over the other flavors. But it does add such a depth when I do use it in the right amounts!! The maple is awesome with the toffee though. You described it perfectly “butteriness”!!! Thanks Averie

Thanks girl! It IS a great combo, and these cookies have a high “chewiness” factor
Oh my!
Though I am not a bacon in my cookies person, the real thing that would bother me about bacon in cookies is proper storage. You don’t usually leave cooked bacon sitting on the counter so I guess you would need to refrigerate the cookies too (or eat them immediately). But your new version, without bacon, sounds great to me! I love how long they stay fresh too! The only maple extract I can find locally is artificially flavored. Do you use one that is naturally flavored?

Hi Wendy, I use maple flavoring, I guess I should fix that in the ingredients list! Enjoy the recipe
