Notes
While this recipe for toffee bars is easy and fast, the key to making them super soft is to monitor the crust for your oven and baking dish. This recipe takes 12 minutes in my mom’s oven and 20 in ours; if you overcook the crust you will not be able to cut through it and you will no longer have super soft toffee bars.The crust will be slightly browned at the edges and you can tap the center with your finger and get a nice bounce back in texture.
