Toffee Cookie Sandwiches

I have been looking for ways to use up some Heath toffee bits I had in the fridge, I also had leftover frosting from cupcakes and I ended up with these! My boys loved helping me make the cookies and the frosting I should have taken pictures of my 18mo mixing the cookie dough and my 3yo fighting over the spoon! LOL. These cookies would be a best seller at a school bake sale as well. But anyways I got this recipe from the Hershey's website check it out for other great recipes using Hershey's products.
Makes about 36 cookies or 18 sandwiches

Ingredients: 
2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup (1 stick) butter softened
3/4 cup granulated sugar
3/4 cup packed light brown sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 eggs, at room temp (they incorporate a lot better.)
1 1/3 cups (8 oz. pkg.) HEATH BITS 'O BRICKLE Toffee Bits

Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

1. Stir together the dry ingredients, flour, baking soda, and salt.

2. In a separate bowl cream together butter and sugar, next stir in eggs mixing well after each addition, stir in vanilla. Slowly mix in flour mixture. Lastly stir in toffee bits.

3. Drop 1 inch sized dough balls onto a cookie sheet, bake for 8-12 minutes. Until golden, cool for 2 minutes on the sheet then transfer to a wire cooling rack to cool.
