Almond Toffee Bars

So this may seem dumb to most people, but I was super excited to get the Macey’s ad this week. And this is why:

I have run out of my year’s supply of Sweetened Condensed Milk, which is a staple at my home. I have been looking to re-stock and the prices were making me sick. I ended up paying almost 1.50, simply because I needed to make my Almond Toffee bars for a party. So I was very happy to head off to Macey’s today to re-stock my shelves.

Onto one of the loves of my life: Almond Toffee bars! We have them probably once a month (between me and my mom making them). So I have decided to share the recipe (I told my Aunt Lisa I would eventually get around to posting it - sorry about the delay!) anyway, so here it is:

Almond Toffee Bars

1/2 c. butter or margarine1 c. almond toffee pieces
1 1/2 c. quick cooking rolled oats1 c. almonds, sliced or chopped
1/2 c. graham cracker crumbs1 (14oz) can sweetened condensed milk
1 (6oz) c. semi-sweet chocolate chips

Heat oven to 325 degrees. Melt butter in 9x13 baking pan in the oven (while preheating). Remove pan from oven. Sprinkle oats and crumbs evenly over melted butter; press lightly onto bottom of pan using the back of a large metal spoon. Sprinkle chocolate pieces, toffee pieces, and almonds evenly over the crumb mixture. Drizzle all with sweetened condensed milk.

Bake for 25-30 minutes or until edges are bubbly and center is just lightly browned. Remove from oven and immediately run a narrow metal spatula or table knife around the edge of the pan to loosen the cookie. Cool completely in pan on a wire rack. Cut into bars or squares.

Yum, Yum!! Way easy to make and everyone loves them. Anyway, I always have the stuff on hand just so I can whip out a batch whenever I need them…for me or anyone else!

  1. My problem has been that I have the supply, but I haven't known what to do with it.... UNTIL NOW! Those sound really good. I'm gonna try them out for sure!
