The pastry layers are golden brown, flaky, and textured with many thin crispy layers. The creamy filling looks smooth and thick, sitting evenly between the pastry layers. The top pastry layer is dusted lightly with powdered sugar. The entire stack sits on a surface with a white marbled texture, with warm bokeh lights softly glowing in the blurred background. photo taken with an iphone --ar 4:5 --v 7

Ingredients

1 cup unsalted butter, divided
1 cup packed brown sugar
1 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 cup toffee bits
1/2 cup powdered sugar

Instructions

Step 1: Preheat your oven to 350°F and line a 9×13-inch baking dish with parchment paper.
Step 2: Melt 1/2 cup of unsalted butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Stir in the brown sugar, granulated sugar, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, and salt until well combined. Remove from heat and let cool for 5 minutes.
Step 3: In a large bowl, combine the cooled butter mixture with the all-purpose flour. Stir gently until just combined. Spread the batter evenly into the prepared baking dish and bake for 20-25 minutes until golden brown. Let cool for 10 minutes.
Step 4: Melt the remaining 1/2 cup of unsalted butter in a small bowl. Stir in the chocolate chips and toffee bits until smooth and creamy.
Step 5: In a small bowl, mix 1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon with the powdered sugar. Sprinkle this cinnamon-sugar mixture evenly over the cooled baked base.
Step 6: Pour the chocolate-toffee mixture over the cinnamon-sugar-coated base and spread evenly. Sprinkle additional powdered sugar on top. Let cool completely at room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 1 hour to set.
Step 7: Use the parchment paper to lift the dessert from the pan and cut it into squares. Serve and enjoy!

Tips & Variations

For extra crunch, toast the toffee bits lightly before adding them to the chocolate mixture.
Substitute semi-sweet chocolate chips with white chocolate or milk chocolate for a different flavor profile.
Add a pinch of cayenne pepper to the butter-sugar mixture for a subtle spicy kick.
Use gluten-free flour to make this dessert suitable for gluten-sensitive guests.
