These cookies are so good! I was making them for a bereavement luncheon and could not get them all to fit in the container. I tried one and had to put the rest in the freezer before I would eat more than I should! I did not have the toffee bits, but added 1 cup of Hershey's sea salt caramel chips.

I loved the combination of using shortening and butter. I used butter flavored Crisco shortening. I think it made a nice, rich dough and helped hold the shape of the cookies better.

Quite nice. I enjoyed that it was chewy but crisp when you bit into it. I didn't have the required chips on hand. I used: Ghirardelli bittersweet baking chips (larger sized), dark chocolate morsels, mini chocolate chips and left over milk chocolate chips along with the toffee and nuts.
