chocolate chip toffee bars

It didn't take much to persuade me to make this recipe and it's probably one of the easiest recipes yet- you don't even need to pull our a mixer. It's really rich so a little goes a long way. Be sure to check out the link below where I found this recipe. Lots of fun ideas.

chocolate chip toffee bars (blog: brown paper packages, so cute!)
2 1/3 cups flour
2/3 cup brown sugar
2 cups chocolate chips
1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
3/4 cup butter
1 egg, slightly beaten
1 cup coarsely chopped nuts (pecans or walnuts) optional
1 3/4 cups toffee bits (10 ounces)

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a large bowl mix the flour and sugar together. Cut in butter until the mixture is course crumbs. Add beaten egg and mix well. Stir in 1 1/2 cups chocolate chips and nuts. Reserve 1 1/2 cups of that mixture. Press the rest into a greased 9x13 pan. Bake for 10 minutes. Pour the sweetened condensed milk over the top in an even layer. Top with 1 1/2 cups toffee bits. Sprinkle reserved crumb mixture on top, followed by the remaining chocolate chips. Bake 25-30 minutes or until golden brown. Sprinkle remaining toffee bits on top.
