Introducing…your new favorite cookie! My Churro Toffee Cookies might be my proudest creation yet. My husband described them as “snickerdoodles on steroids!” Haha! They are so soft, bursting with cinnamon flavor, full of crunchy toffee bits and finished off with a white chocolate drizzle. They are my go-to cookie when taking a treat to a friend. When you bake them for friends or family, they WILL ask for the recipe so be prepared to give it to them!

Disneyland Inspiration for Churro Toffee Cookies
Back in October my family and I went to Disneyland. Beforehand I, of course, made a list of all the foods and treats that I wanted to eat. One thing that kept popping up on all the Disney food-related accounts that I follow was “churro toffee.” It looked like something most people would pass up, though. Kind of boring and not colorful like all of the other treats that fill the bakery cases at Disneyland. However, if that many people were obsessed with it, Churro Toffee must be worth a try. Oh my goodness I fell in love! It’s basically a large square of perfectly crunchy English toffee, dipped in white chocolate, then generously coated in cinnamon sugar. I didn’t even get a great picture because it’s not that photogenic but here’s one I found online in stock images:

I’m so glad that I tried the Churro Toffee! On the way home from our trip I could NOT stop thinking about it. I didn’t want to totally recreate it but wanted to make a dessert inspired by the flavors. These cookies have been in my head for 2 long months. I’m so happy that I finally got them in my belly! Churro Toffee Cookies are the softest snickerdoodle type cookie with Heath chips added in. The toffee chips melt and are so soft! White chocolate is drizzled over the top with extra toffee chips for that crunch needed to taste exactly like a cookie version of Disneyland Churro Toffee. Y’all HAVE to make these cookies for the holidays!

Churro Toffee Cookies

For the cookie coating
