These Toffee Chocolate Chip Ice Box Cookies are soft and chewy with a winning combination of chocolate and toffee. Deliciously buttery, they can be made in advance and baked when you're ready to enjoy them!
Once you sink your teeth into these delicious icebox cookies, you will wish you'd made a double batch!
I love how quickly these come together and you can cook one log and the next one a few days later. You can even freeze the dough and bake the cookies a month later.
Perfect for Christmas! These cookies are nice and sturdy and would hold up well to packaging for shipping.

STEP-BY-STEP INSTRUCTIONS
In a large mixing bowl, beat butter with brown sugar until light and fluffy. You can use an electric mixer to do this or mix by hand with a wooden spoon.
Beat in egg and vanilla until well-combined.
In a small mixing bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder and salt.
Gradually add to butter mixture in two additions. Mix just until a soft dough forms.

Shape dough and roll by hand into a 7-inch long log and wrap in plastic wrap. The roll will be about 3 inches tall.
