How to Make Buttercrunch Toffee Shortbread

  1. Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C) and grease a 9x13 inch or 9x11 inch baking pan.
  2. Whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1/2 cup almond flour, and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a medium bowl.
  3. In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter and 3/4 cup granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Add 1/2 cup packed brown sugar and cream until well combined.
  4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, 1/2 cup at a time, mixing with a wooden spoon or your fingers until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  5. Stir in 1 cup butterscotch chips and 1 cup toffee bits.
  6. Press the dough evenly into the prepared pan.
  7. Bake for 60-70 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the center is set. Score the shortbread into bars while still warm in the pan.
  8. Let the shortbread cool completely in the pan before cutting into individual bars. Enjoy!
