Ingredients

1 cup butter, softened

These Toffee Sandwich Cookies are a nice salute to homemade cookies. No one will reject the sandwich style cookie. The filling will appeal to traditionalists. Some times a flat, uniced cookie will stipulate just what is a favorite to some of our crowd. Yet, other times a tasty filling will draw you in. Try these to see just which way you prefer! Let me know your favorite.
