Chocolate Chip Toffee Bars

I have had this recipe bookmarked for a while now and had the perfect opportunity to finally make them. They were super yummy! They were very rich, but, oh, so tasty! It is also very versatile, you could swap out the flavor of chocolate chips, I used almonds instead of pecans...pretty much, whatever you have in the pantry, use it. I now have a new bar to add to my cookie list at the holidays!
