You will find these delectable delights in the Wolfville Library on Wednesday, Dec. 4. Hope you enjoy them! They were baked by Gail Aldred from the Middleton branch.
What you need:
2 1.4 oz. pkgs chocolate-covered toffee pieces (1/2 cup)
3/4 cup butter or margarine
1/3 cup sugar
1 Tbsp milk
2 tsp vanilla
1/2 cup semisweet chocolate pieces
2 tsps shortening
Here's How:
1. Finely chop chocolate-covered toffee pieces. Set aside.
2.
Beat butter in a large mixing bowl with an electric mixer on medium to
high speed for 30 seconds. Add sugar; beat until combined. Beat in
milk and vanilla. Beat in as much flour as you can with the mixer.
Stir in remaining flour and the chopped chocolate-covered toffee pieces
with a wooden spoon, if necessary. Cover and chill 1 hour or until
easy to handle.
3.
Preheat oven to 325 F. Shape dough into 1-inch balls. Place 1 inch
apart on ungreased cookie sheets. Bake in a preheated oven for 15 to 20
minutes or until bottoms are lightly browned. Cool on wire racks.
4.
Combine chocolate pieces and shortening in a small saucepan over low
heat. Heat and stir just until chocolate is melted. Drizzle over
cookies on plate. Makes about 45.
