Toffee Squares (that you won't stop eating)

The flavor of these is SO yummy. I found myself grabbing one every time I passed the kitchen yesterday. Today I need to give the rest away to save myself. I hadn't tried this recipe before, but the taste is similar to a different treat I've made. Either way, they're a keeper. The slight crunch of the bar with the smooth chocolate on top. You can't get much better than this for any chocolate lover.

Toffee Squares

1 cup butter

1 cup brown sugar

1 egg yolk

1 tsp vanilla

1/4 tsp salt

2 cups flour

12 ounces melted chocolate

1/2 cup chopped walnuts

Cream butter and add sugar gradually. Blend in egg yolk, vanilla, salt, and flour. Spread on greased 10x15x1 inch cookie sheet. {I found it works best to use your fingers to spread the dough evenly}. Bake at 350 degrees for 15-20 minutes, to a light brown color. Spread with melted chocolate (double boiler or microwave version) right after pulling the cooked bars from the oven. Sprinkle with chopped walnuts and let cool. (You could pop it in the freezer for 10 minutes to speed the process). Cut into small squares and INDULGE!

{Thanks mom for sending this recipe to me. Gotta love the newspaper printing yummy chocolate recipes.}
