Every once in awhile I get the urge to make a dessert.  We usually have cookies in the house, but sometimes I want something a little different for a sweet treat.  These looked really good and not too hard to make.

Ingredients

• 1/2 C butter, melted
• 2 C graham cracker crumbs (32 squares) 
• 1 8 oz. bag toffee bits
• 1 roll refrigerated chocolate chip cookie dough
• 1 12oz. bag chocolate chips
• 1 14oz. can sweetened condensed milk
• 1 T butter
• 1 tsp vanilla extract

Preparation

• Grease 13x9 baking dish and heat oven to 350.
• Have the roll of cookie dough sitting out for around 10 minutes to soften up.
• In a medium mixing bowl, stir together the 1/2 cup of melted butter, 1 1/2 cups of graham cracker crumbs and 3/4 cup of toffee bits.
• Pour mixture into the greased pan and press evenly until mixture covers bottom of pan. 
• Refrigerate for around 15 minutes.
• In a 2 qt saucepan, heat the milk, chocolate chips and the tablespoon of butter over medium heat. 
• Stir frequently until the chips are melted and the mixture is smooth. 
• Remove the mixture from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract. 
• Spread the mixture over the graham cracker crumb mixture.
• In another medium mixing bowl, break up the cookie dough and stir in the remaining 1/2 cup graham cracker crumbs until blended. 
• Crumble the mixture evenly over the chocolate layer and the sprinkle the remaining 3/4 cup toffee bits on top.
• Bake for about 25-35 minutes or until it's golden brown. 
• Cool completely before cutting, probably around 2 or more hours.

Review & Changes- These are super rich.  Of course that isn't a bad thing, but a small piece goes a long way.  They are an amazing combination of chocolate and toffee.  The crust layer doesn't really get hard so they stay nice and chewy.  Definitely amazing, you should make these!
