Step-by-Step Instructions for Butterscotch Toffee Cookie Bars
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking pan.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
  3. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition, then add the vanilla extract and blend until smooth.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add to the wet ingredients until just combined.
  5. Fold in the butterscotch chips and toffee bits.
  6. Spread the dough evenly into the prepared baking pan, pressing down gently to fill the corners.
  7. Bake for 25-30 minutes until the edges are golden brown and the center springs back slightly.
  8. Let the cookie bars cool in the pan for at least 30 minutes before slicing into squares.
