How to Make Toffee Almond Shortbread Bites

  1. Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour and ¾ cup packed light brown sugar.
  3. Cut in 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, using a pastry blender or your fingertips, until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  4. Stir in ½ cup sliced almonds and ½ cup toffee pieces (broken into small chunks).
  5. Gently gather the dough into a ball. Knead lightly for about 30 seconds until just combined.
  6. On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough to ¼-inch thickness.
  7. Use a 1 ¼- to 1 ½-inch scalloped or round cookie cutter to cut out the cookies. Reroll scraps as needed.
  8. Place the cookies 1 inch apart on the prepared baking sheet.
  9. Sprinkle generously with coarse sugar (about 2 tablespoons).
  10. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the bottoms are lightly browned and the edges are set.
  11. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
