We were inspired by Chris Morocco’s recipe for Snickerdoodle Party Cookies when developing this recipe. The combination of crunchy cornflakes, sweet toffee, and spicy cardamom is an intoxicating mixture. We use a blend of vanilla and browned butter for a deep roasty flavor.
Cornflake Cookie Toffee Bars
Ingredients
- 4 tbsp unsalted butter
- 1 cup all purpose flour
- ½ tsp baking soda
- ½ tsp kosher salt
- 1 tsp cardamom
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- ½ cup packed brown sugar
- 2 tbsp granulated sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- ¾ cup cornflakes, lightly crushed
- ¾ cup toffee pieces
Directions
1) In a small skillet, brown 4 tbsp unsalted butter. Transfer butter to the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment.
2) In a medium bowl, whisk together 1 cup flour, ½ tsp baking soda, ½ tsp kosher salt, 1 tsp cardamom, and 1 tsp cinnamon. Set aside.
3) Add ½ cup brown sugar and 2 tbsp granulated sugar to the butter. Mix on low to incorporate, then increase the speed to medium, and beat until combined, about 1 minute, scraping down the bowl often. Add the egg and vanilla and continue beating until light and smooth, about 1 minute more, scraping down the bowl as needed.
4) Reduce speed to low and add the flour mixture. Mix until just combined. Transfer the dough to a greased, and parchment lined Suvie pan, pressing into an even layer. Sprinkle ¾ cup crushed cornflakes and ¾ cup toffee pieces over the top, pressing firmly to adhere. Place pan in the bottom zone of Suvie, input settings and cook now.
