Toffee Almond Sandies

This is a magical cookie that tastes like an almond cookie mixed with a butter cookie mixed with chunks of toffee bits. Thanks Auntie Sheryl for this awesome recipe...it's one of my favorites!

Toffee Almond Sandies

1 c. butter, softened

1 c. sugar

1 c. powdered sugar

1 c. oil

2 eggs

1 t. almond extract

3 1/2 c. flour

1 c. whole wheat flour (can substitute)

1 t. baking soda

1 t. cream of tartar

1 t. salt

2 c. chopped almonds

6 oz. toffee bits, or 5 chopped Heath bars

Additional sugar for rolling

Cream butter and sugars. Add oil, eggs, and extract. Combine flours, baking soda, cream of tartar, and salt. Gradually add to creamed mixture. Stir in almonds and toffee bits. Roll into balls and roll in sugar. Place on ungreased cookie sheets and flatten with a fork. Bake at 350 for 12-14 minutes. This makes a lot (like 5 dozen), but keep well and freeze well!
