Dark Chocolate Peanut Butter Toffee Cookies

I’m on a huge dark chocolate kick lately. It’s the “healthier” chocolate, right?! 😉

We spent our fourth day in a row poolside since summer break officially started last week. We are spending the next two weeks at my dad’s house waiting for our new house to be complete but we aren’t complaining because he has the most amazing pool ever. Seriously, my kids could swim out there all day long. They actually proved that yesterday when they had me out there at the pool’s edge from 10am to 5pm. They treat that pool like it is a job.

That doesn’t mean that they don’t need meals or snacks though. To be that “Betty Crocker-type of mom”, I whipped up a batch of amazing cookies. These are soft, gooey and I love the addition of the toffee bits to give it an extra flavor that surprisingly goes perfectly with the peanut butter and dark chocolate. Who knew, right?!
