Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a mixing bowl, whisk together 284g of all-purpose flour and a pinch of salt until well combined.
  2. In a separate bowl, cream 1 cup of cold, diced unsalted butter and 1 cup of powdered sugar until smooth.
  3. Add a teaspoon of vanilla extract and blend to incorporate.
  4. Gently fold in 1 cup of toffee bits and 1 cup of chopped pecans, ensuring even distribution.
  5. Divide the dough into two portions and shape each into a log approximately 6.5 inches long.
  6. Wrap each log tightly in plastic wrap and refrigerate for about 1 hour.
  7. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) during the last 15 minutes of chilling.
  8. Remove logs from the fridge and slice into pieces less than 1/2 inch thick.
  9. Bake in the preheated oven for 12-16 minutes until edges turn golden brown.
  10. While cookies cool, melt 8 ounces of chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl.
  11. Once cooled, dip half of each cookie into the melted chocolate and sprinkle with toffee bits and pecans.
  12. Set on a wire rack to let the chocolate harden.
