  • 2 ¼ cups all purpose flour
  • 2 tsp. baking soda
  • 1 tsp. cornstarch
  • ½ tsp. salt
  • ½ tsp. ground cinnamon
  • ¾ cup unsalted butter, at room temperature
  • 1 ¼ cup firmly packed dark brown sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 1 tsp. vanilla extract
  • 1 cup Heath toffee bits

  6. With the mixer on low, slowly add the dry ingredients.
  7. Mix until just combined.
