  • 1 cup firmly packed light brown sugar

  7. Beat in the eggs and vanilla.
  8. Add the flour mixture and stir just until blended.
  9. Stir in the toffee, hazelnuts, and chocolate chips.
  10. For each cookie, drop 1 rounded tablespoonful of dough onto sheet, spacing 1 inch apart (do not flatten dough).
