These cookies are pretty good. I liked the flavor of the hazelnuts and toffee, but I found them to be a little too sweet for my taste. I also think they could have been a little more chewy.

This was my first time making toffee cookies and they turned out great! I followed the recipe exactly and they were perfect. The cookies were golden brown and crispy on the outside, and chewy and gooey on the inside. I will definitely be making these
