These are the best!! I've been making these for about 10 years now and everyone who eats them loves them!! They are very easy to make. I use my kitchen aid stand mixer to cut in the butter and use mini chips. My family prefers the minis in these bars over the regular chips.

I made these to take to a party. I did omit the nuts. I think these are good but I'm just not crazy about the sweetened condensed milk in them for some reason. I wonder what it would be like with a jar of caramel sauce poured over instead of the milk...I may try that :) But, it's obviously all up to individual tastes. Looking at the reviews, most people loved them. I liked them but don't think I'd make them "as is" again, I may try the caramel :) Thanks for posting!

Great in the fall. Read some other reviews who thought there was not enough flavor, very much disagree, it wasn't too sweet like so many recipes are.

With all the good reviews, I thought these would be better. The shortbread chocolate chip crust was too dry for my taste. Won't make these again.

My diabetic father-in-law loves these cookies and has me warn him a week in advance on when I will be bringing these over. Everyone in the family enjoys these, but like others have said...these are very sweet! A little bit goes a long way. I will make this cookie often and the extended family looks forward to these at Christmas.

Outstanding! A little bit of a pain to make (with all the separating of ingredients, cutting in the butter, etc) but very worth the effort, and I had all ingredients onhand! Very addictive and appreciated by all who sampled some (over and over again!) I did spray my pyrex dish prior to filling.

Absolutely delish!! It's a great candy bar that's so easy to make! I got a little mixed up with all of the ingredients that needed to be reserved to make different layers. I put the remaining toffee bits on before the final baking, but that didn't matter! The results were still great! The sweetened milk mixes with the crust to create a caramel-ish layer. I had to refer back to the recipe, because I wasn't sure if I had added any caramel and just forgot! I highly recommend this recipe. :)
