Toffee Bars - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 cup butter or 1 cup margarine
1 cup brown sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla (imitation worked fine)
2 cups sifted all-purpose flour
1 cup semisweet chocolate piece (Or one 6-ounce package)
1 cup chopped california walnut (optional, cookies are just as good without walnuts)

Preparation

Thoroughly cream together butter, sugar, and vanilla. Add flour, mix well. Stir in chocolate and walnuts.
Press mixture into ungreased 15 1/2 x 10 1/2 x 1-inch jelly-roll pan. (Square brownie pans work, too. You'll end up with square cookies but my family loves them.).
Bake in moderate oven (350\u00b0F) 25 minutes or until browned. While still warm, cut in bars or squares. Cool before removing from pan.
(Makes small 5 dozen with jelly-roll pan or 9 large square cookies in brownie pan).
