Toffee-Almond Oatmeal Cookies - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 1/4 cups whole wheat flour
3/4 teaspoon baking powder
3/4 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons cinnamon
1 1/2 cups old fashioned oats
3/4 cup butter (softened, or substitute butter-flavored Crisco, for all, or part of the butter)
1 cup light brown sugar
1 large egg
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1/2 cup chocolate-covered toffee pieces (Skor bits, Heath bits, or crushed Skor or Heath candy bars!)
3/4 cup almonds (toasted and chopped)

Preparation

Preheat oven to 350\u00b0F Line baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone liners.
In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon. Stir in oats. Set aside.
In a large bowl, beat butter and brown sugar until fluffy. Add egg and vanilla, and mix well. Gradually add flour mixture, beating just until combined. Stir in toffee chips and almonds.
Drop dough by tablespoons onto prepared baking sheets. Bake 12-15 minutes or until lightly browned. Cool on baking sheets for 2-3 minutes. Then, remove cookies to wire racks to cool completely.
