How to Make Toffee Bar Dessert

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. In a large bowl, combine 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour, ½ cup toffee bits, ½ cup chopped pecans, ½ cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, softened, and ¾ cup granulated sugar. Mix until well combined.
  3. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of a greased 13x9 inch baking pan.
  4. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until lightly golden brown. Let cool completely.
  5. In a separate large bowl, pour 2 cups milk.
  6. Add 1 (3.4 ounce) package instant vanilla pudding mix.
  7. Beat with a wire whisk for 1-2 minutes, or until smooth and creamy.
  8. Spread 1 ½ cups of the pudding mixture evenly over the cooled crust.
  9. Gently fold half of a 16-ounce container of whipped topping into the remaining pudding mixture.
  10. Spread this mixture over the pudding layer in the pan.
  11. Top with the remaining whipped topping.
  12. Sprinkle generously with ½ cup toffee bits.
  13. Refrigerate for at least 3 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to meld and the dessert to set completely.
