Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup unsalted butter (softened)
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup light brown sugar (packed)
- 2 large eggs
- 2 tsp vanilla extract (divided)
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp sea salt
- 3 1/2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
- 1 1/2 packages (12 oz) Heath English Milk Chocolate Toffee Bits
- 16 oz cream cheese (softened, two 8-ounce blocks)
- 2 large eggs
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- Remaining cookie dough from above
- 1/2 package (8 oz) Heath English Milk Chocolate Toffee Bits
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and light brown sugar using an electric mixer until smooth and well combined. Add 2 large eggs and 2 teaspoons vanilla extract, beating until fully mixed.
- Stir in baking soda, sea salt, and unbleached all-purpose flour gradually until dough forms. Then fold in one and a half packages (12 oz) of Heath English Milk Chocolate Toffee Bits evenly into the dough.
- Spray an 11×17-inch jelly-roll pan with cooking spray to prevent sticking. Press about half to two-thirds of the cookie dough evenly into the bottom of the pan, reserving the remaining dough for topping later.
- In a separate bowl, beat softened cream cheese with 2 large eggs, 1/2 cup granulated sugar, and 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
- Spread the cheesecake filling evenly over the pressed cookie dough crust layer in the pan. Crumble the reserved cookie dough over the cheesecake layer.
- Sprinkle the remaining 1/2 package (8 oz) of Heath English Milk Chocolate Toffee Bits evenly over the crumbled cookie dough topping.
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake the assembled brownies for about 35-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean and the top is golden.
- Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack before cutting into 48 small squares. Serve and enjoy!
