Steps:
- For cookies: Spoon cookie mix into a wire-mesh strainer set over a large bowl. Sift the cookie mix through strainer, leaving the chocolate chips in strainer (reserve the chocolate chips for another use). Add flour, eggs, oil, and butter flavoring to cookie mix in bowl. Stir until dough comes together. Shape into a ball, then wrap in plastic wrap. Chill dough in refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Line cookie sheet(s) with parchment paper and set aside.
- On a lightly floured surface, roll out chilled dough to 1/4-inch thickness. Using a 3-inch flower-shaped cookie cutter, cut 12 shapes from the dough. Using a 1-inch round cookie cutter, cut out each flower center. Re-roll the scrap dough and cut out another 12 flower shapes, but do not cut out centers. Transfer the flowers to the prepared cookie sheet(s), spacing cookies 2 inches apart.
- Bake cookies 8 to 10 minutes or just until starting to brown. Cool on cookie sheet(s) for 5 minutes. Transfer cookies to a wire rack to cool completely.
- For filling: In a medium bowl, stir together frosting and powdered sugar until well mixed. Gently stir in 1/2 cup toffee bits.
- Spoon a heaping tablespoon filling onto each of the whole flower cookies. Top each with a cut-out flower cookie. Sprinkle a scant teaspoon of the remaining toffee bits in the center of each cut-out cookie.
ENGLISH TOFFEE
This heavenly chocolate-toffee is one of our favorite holiday treats to make (and eat). We know the thought of making candy can be intimidating, but it really needn't be. Sure, you need a candy thermometer, and you do need to pay close attention - the toffee can go from perfect to burnt in a matter of moments - but beyond that, it's pretty simple, and the results are spectacular. We recommend making two batches; one to give away as gifts, and the other to keep for yourself.

Steps:
- Spread half the ground nuts in a thin, even layer over 3/4 of an ungreased half-sheet baking pan. Spread half the chocolate over the nuts.
- Combine sugar, butter, corn syrup, chopped walnuts and water in a heavy saucepan; place over medium heat. Cook, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon until a candy thermometer reads 280 degrees. Remove from heat, allow to stand a few minutes longer until thermometer reads 285 degrees. Pour the hot mixture over the nut and chocolate layers, use an offset spatula to evenly spread the toffee over the chocolate. Allow to cool for 1-2 minutes.
- Sprinkle remaining chocolate evenly over the cooling syrup, and carefully spread the chocolate over the surface of the toffee. Then sprinkle on the remaining ground nuts. Let stand in a cool place (preferably not the kitchen) for at least five hours. Break or cut into bite-size pieces. If the chocolate has not hardened thoroughly, place the candies in the refrigerator for 10 to 15 minutes. Store in a covered container or in glass jars or decorated tins.

BROWN-BUTTER TOFFEE SANDWICH COOKIES
These crisp butter cookies incorporate blitzed toffee in place of some of the sugar and butter for a rich caramel flavor. To really amplify that almond-toffee essence, the cookies are topped with sliced almonds, and a nutty brown-butter icing is sandwiched in between. Be sure to roll the cookies very thin (about the thickness of two stacked pennies) so they stay crisp and light. The sturdy sandwiches have a long shelf life, making them ideal for shipping.

Steps:
- Make the cookies: In a food processor, process the toffee bits, sugar, baking soda and salt until the toffee is mostly ground and the mixture is sandy, about 1 minute.
- Transfer the toffee mixture to the bowl of a stand mixer (or a large bowl if using a hand mixer). Add butter, egg white and vanilla. Mix together with the paddle attachment on medium until creamy and fluffy, stopping once to scrape the bowl and paddle, about 2 minutes. Add flour, and mix on medium-low until the mixture comes together into a soft dough, about 30 seconds.
- Divide the dough in half. Pat each half into a disk. (If the dough is very soft, wrap and chill in the fridge for 15 minutes before proceeding.) Line three sheet trays with parchment paper.
- Dust the counter and dough with flour. Working with one piece of dough at a time, use a rolling pin to roll the dough out until just under ⅛-inch thick (the thickness of two stacked pennies), turning the dough frequently to ensure it moves freely on the counter and dusting with more flour as needed. Each sheet of dough will be about the size of a standard sheet of paper.
- Using a 2-inch round cookie cutter dusted in flour, cut out cookies from one sheet of dough. Using an offset spatula, transfer rounds to a prepared sheet tray, leaving about ½ inch of space between cookies.
- Repeat with the remaining sheet of dough. Gather and knead together any scraps, reroll and repeat until all the dough has been rolled out for a total of 72 cookies. Freeze on sheet trays for at least 30 minutes before baking. (Alternatively, once the cookies have firmly frozen, stack them between parchment in a freezer-safe container or zipper-lock bag for up to 3 months.)
- Set racks in the upper and lower thirds of the oven and heat oven to 350 degrees. Whisk together the egg yolk with 1 tablespoon of water and evenly brush on the tops of half of the chilled cookies. Sprinkle the yolk-brushed cookies with almonds, pressing gently to adhere. Bake the first two trays of cookies until deeply browned like a pretzel, switching the sheet trays from top to bottom and rotating from front to back halfway through, 10 to 14 minutes. Repeat with the third and final batch. Let cookies cool completely on sheet trays.
- Once the cookies are cool, make the icing: Set a piping bag in a tall and narrow container, like a deli quart container, and fold over the top edge to secure. Flip over the cookies without almonds. (You need to pipe the icing onto the cookies immediately after mixing, so make sure you are set up.)
- In a small saucepan over medium heat, melt butter until foamy, about 3 minutes. Continue cooking butter, stirring and scraping frequently with a stiff silicone spatula, until the sputtering has subsided and the butter solids look deeply browned, 3 to 5 minutes. Scrape the butter and any brown bits into the bowl of a stand mixer (or into a large bowl if mixing by hand).
- Stir in the vanilla and salt. Sift over the powdered sugar. With the paddle attachment, mix on low until creamy and combined, about 1 minute, stopping once during mixing to scrape the bowl and the paddle. (You can also mix with a stiff silicone spatula until creamy and combined.)
- Transfer the icing to the piping bag and cut a 1-inch wide opening at the tip. Pipe a scant tablespoon of filling onto a flipped cookie and immediately top with an almond-topped cookie. Gently press to adhere so that the filling reaches the edges of the cookie. Repeat with remaining cookies and icing. Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 month.
COFFEE CHOCOLATE CHIP ICE CREAM SANDWICHES
Steps:
- Leave the ice cream at room temperature for about 15 minutes, until it's soft enough to scoop but not melted. Place 4 cookies, flat sides up, on a cutting board and, using a 2 1/2-inch standard ice cream scoop, put one round scoop of ice cream on each cookie. Place 4 more cookies, flat sides down, on top of each scoop of ice cream and press lightly until the ice cream is at the edge of the cookies.
- Put the toffee bits on a small plate and, working quickly, roll the edge of the sandwiches in the toffee bits, using your hand to fill in the spaces with toffee. Place the sandwiches immediately in the freezer and freeze until firm. Wrap well and keep frozen until ready to serve.
TOFFEE SANDWICH COOKIES
This is an adopted recipe that I haven't yet tried. The original chef comments: "My cousin JoAnn makes cookies better than anyone I know. (I'll bet even better than you!) When she comes to visit, she always brings a giant tupperware container full of freshly baked cookies. These are my favorite!"

Steps:
- Line a large baking tray with baking parchment. Heat oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7. Heat the butter in a non-stick pan with 110ml water until melted. Increase the heat until boiling, then place on the lowest heat possible and quickly beat in the flour until the mixture comes together as a ball. Take off the heat, beat in the eggs one at a time until glossy and thick, then leave to cool for a few mins.
- Spoon or pipe the pastry onto the baking tray in eight equal-sized blobs (about 6-7cm wide), bake for 5 mins, then reduce the oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6 and continue to bake until well risen and golden. Turn the oven off and leave the buns inside the oven to dry out until cool. Can be made a day ahead and kept in an airtight container.
- For the sauce, tip the sugar, syrup, treacle and butter into a pan, bring to the boil and stir until combined. Pour in the double cream and bubble briskly for 2-3 mins until thickened slightly. Stir and season with a pinch of salt. The sauce can be made two days ahead and kept in an airtight container in a cool place. Reheat gently in the microwave or a saucepan before serving.
- To serve, cut the buns in half, then place a ball of ice cream on the bottom half. Pop the lid back on and arrange the buns on a big board. Drizzle with the warm toffee sauce and serve any toppings on the side for people to add themselves.
