Oatmeal Cranberry Toffee Cookies
Curse you J.E. O’Connor Mitchell!!! Well, perhaps that is a tad overdramatic but I totally blame Jane (J.E.) for suggesting that we bake Oatmeal Cranberry Toffee Cookies when I visited her a couple of months ago. You see, they are irresistible.
I was on the west coast of Florida for Happylicious by Betsy and Jane asked me to pick up toffee candy bars, chocolate and cranberries. My mouth started watering while reading her text.
Oatmeal Cranberry Toffee Cookies are a breeze to put together. The toffee pieces can be bought chopped or, as I did, bought in candy form and chopped at home. Then it’s really just a matter of mixing all of the ingredients together.
A friend of Jane’s gave her the recipe but we are not sure who the original baker is which is why I wrote that the auther is ‘unknown’.
Good luck trying to eat just one….dozen!
