Toffee and Chocolate Shortbread Cups
Nothing says "Christmas" to me like shortbread cookies -- this is an easy variation your family will love -- so easy to make - great as a gift too!
Shortbread:
1 cup butter 1 tsp vanilla 3/4 cup confectioners sugar 2 cups flour
Filling:
3/4 cup toffee bits (I used Heath) 3/4 cup chocolate chips
Preheat oven to 325°F.
Combine shortbread ingredients into well blended and it forms a soft dough. Press 2 tsp into the bottom and up the side of each mini-muffin tin compartment.
Mix together the filling ingredients and place 1 tsp into the center well of each shortbread cup.
Refrigerate the unbaked cookie cups for 30 minutes.
When they have been chilled, remove the tray and place in the pre-heated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes until the edges of the shortbread are a very light golden brown.
Allow to cool in the muffin tin tray, and then gently remove the cookie cups. Store in an airtight container.
