Chocolate Cashew Toffee Bars

I made these Chocolate Cashew Toffee Bars as part of a Christmas-trio-packs to giveaway to our friends and neighbors, the other two were Chocolate Crinkles and macaroons. This was not the first time I made these bars actually, last year I came across a recipe for toffee bars using sweetened condensed milk, I just altered the recipe a bit, adding this and that but still keeping it simple. It was such a big hit that I decided to make them again this year and they never seem to have failed me. But I am really more surprised about the Chocolate Crinkles as people keep on asking me about the recipe and it seems they not that well-known here in Germany. Our neighbor drop by just today to ask for the recipe, because, apparently, her daughter keeps on asking for them. As for these toffee bars, one person, in particular, asked me to make a special batch just for him. Armin can’t seem to have enough of them, it’s his favorite among the three he says.
