How To Make toffee bars

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Step 2

Beat together the sugar and butter or margarine until light and fluffy. Beat in the egg yolks and vanilla. Stir in the flour and salt.
Step 3

Spread the dough in a greased 13 X 9 X 2-inch baking pan. Bake until lightly browned, 25-30 minutes. The texture will be soft.
Step 4

Remove from the oven and immediately place the chocolate pieces on the hot cookie base. Let stand until the chocolate softens, then spread it evenly with a spatula. Sprinkle with nuts.
Step 5

While still warm, cut into bars about 2 X 1-1/2 inches.
