Sugar cookies are one of my favorite kind of cookies. They’re soft and sweet, but not TOO sweet and delicate. Yum! Also....toffee is like one of my bff’s. Love it. I prefer it without chocolate but I’ll eat that too. So adding toffee chips to my favorite sugar cookie recipe just made good sense and adding pecans because well...pecans. Yummy cookies, guys!
