Ingredients
- 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 3/4 cup packed light brown sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 tablespoon bourbon
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 cup toffee bits
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.
- In a large bowl, using an electric mixer, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy (about 2-3 minutes).
- Beat in the egg, then stir in the bourbon and vanilla extract until well combined.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Stir in the chocolate chips and toffee bits until evenly distributed.
- Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, about 2 inches apart.
- Bake for 9-11 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers are still slightly soft.
- Let cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Enjoy warm or at room temperature.
Notes
- Ensure butter is softened but not melted for the best cookie texture.
- Do not overmix the dough after adding the dry ingredients to prevent tough cookies.
- Adjust baking time slightly depending on your oven and desired level of chewiness.
