Category: Bars
    Prep Time:       Cook Time:       Total Time:  

FOR THE CRUST—
2 cups vanilla wafer cookies, crushed
1/4 cup packed brown sugar
1/3 cup unsalted butter, melted

FOR THE FILLING—
1 stick unsalted butter
1/2 cup packed brown sugar

FOR THE TOPPING—
1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
1/2 cup chopped nuts (pecans, walnuts, or almonds), toasted

Preheat oven to 350; butter a 9×13-inch glass baking dish.

Crush vanilla wafers in resealable plastic bag using a rolling pin. Combine crushed cookies with 1/4 cup brown sugar and 1/3 cup melted butter in a bowl.

Press mixture into prepared baking dish, using a measuring cup to tamp down crust. Bake for 8 minutes, or just until set.

Melt 1 stick butter and 1/2 cup brown sugar together in a saucepan, stirring to blend. Bring mixture to a boil and boil 1 minute without stirring.

Immediately pour mixture over hot crust, then return pan to oven. Bake bars an additional 10 minutes, remove, and cool for 2 minutes.

Sprinkle chocolate chips over toffee and let stand until chips are glossy, about 5 minutes. Spread chocolate using an offset spatula, then sprinkle nuts on top of bars. Cool bars completely.

Remove toffee from pan. To break toffee into pieces, insert tip of a paring knife into toffee and twist until pieces break.
