Method
 

Preparation Steps
  1. Brown the Butter: Melt unsalted butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat, stirring continuously for 5-7 minutes until golden brown; refrigerate for 1-2 hours until solidified.
  2. Prepare the Dough: Beat browned butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar in a stand mixer on medium speed for 3-4 minutes until light and fluffy.
  3. Mix Wet Ingredients: Add egg and vanilla extract, mixing on low speed until just combined.
  4. Combine Dry Ingredients: Whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt; gradually add to wet mixture, mixing on low speed.
  5. Add Toffee Bits: Gently fold in Heath Bar toffee bits with a spatula.
  6. Chill the Dough: Form small balls (about 1.5 inches), place on parchment-lined baking sheet, cover, and refrigerate for at least 4 hours.
  7. Preheat Oven: Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) about 30 minutes before baking.
  8. Bake: Arrange dough balls on baking sheet, sprinkle with flaked sea salt, and bake for 11-13 minutes until edges are golden.
  9. Cool and Serve: Let cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

Chilling the dough enhances flavors and prevents spreading. Each oven bakes differently, so monitor the cookies closely.
