Milk Chocolate Toffee Butter Cookies are so delicious and easy to make!
These Milk Chocolate Toffee Butter Cookies are perfect for a cookie exchange party or for DIY Christmas gifts for your friends and family. Of course, baking up a batch for yourself is a must.
Why Cookies Are So Popular
Everyone loves cookies, right? At least everyone in my family.
I’ll let you in on a secret: I’d rather bake cookies than any other treats. I usually have all the ingredients on hand and it doesn’t take very long to whip up a batch of delicious cookies.
And who doesn’t love a big scoop of cookie dough? I do!
Plus, cookies are portable and come in all shapes, sizes, and flavors. A warm cookie and a glass of cold milk is the perfect snack and takes me back to my childhood days.
Have you ever noticed how good the house smells when cookies are baking?
I always have a list of favorite cookies that I bake during the holiday season. These Milk Chocolate Toffee Butter Cookies are always on the list, alongside my chocolate thumbprint cookies.

Alli, your cookies were divine!!! I am a huge toffee fan, so they were perfect! Thank you and hope your holidays are wonderful.
There’s something really special about baking homemade treats during the holiday season! I really love these chocolate toffee butter cookies. They sound and look so delicious- I’d love to try them this weekend!
I’ve made butter cookies quite a few times, which are great plain. I love the idea of adding in the chocolate toffee bits too. I may have to make a batch of these for my neighbors.
These look so delicious. I love to bake a variety of cookies around the holidays so I always have goodies around for anyone that stops by.
Oh men, I wish I could receive a dozen of these cookies, or maybe three dozens. How fun to do this activity and for such a worthy cause, too. That is great that Land O’ Lakes was willing to match such a high amount of $$$.
Yummy!! I haven’t even made goodies this year but I am totally adding this one to my list.
These look so delicious! How can you eat just one?
We love to bake homemade cookies for the Holidays! Butter cookies are always one of the type we make. i might just have to add toffee to them this year..
I love butter cookies! I’m glad to find a new way to prepare cookies. The kids will surely love this.
