Toffee chocolate chip cookies

I have been craving and wanting to make toffee cookies. I have a recipe for butter toffee cookies but I wanted to kick it up a notch and add chocolate chips. Here is a recipe I  found on Allrecipes.com.  It was sooooooooooo addicting and yum-goodness!! (is that even a word?! LOL.)

p.s. I flattened (lightly pressed) the cookie dough before it went in the oven.

 

Yields 3 dozens

Ingredients

• 1 cup packed brown sugar
• 1/2 cup butter, softened
• 1/2 cup shortening
• 1/4 cup white sugar

• 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
