Toffee Peanut Butter Cookies

I love English Toffee, and I'm actually judging Toffee this month for TasteTV. Having all this toffee around made me want to bake some cookies. Here's a great recipe that combines my love of Peanut Butter Cookies with English Toffee. I have a toffee hammer (well, I have three of them) for breaking up toffee. Clearly this is something I like to do! The small hammers used to come with the toffee tins. Very cool. As always, use the very best peanut butter and toffee. Mix up a batch and take them to the ball game. These Toffee Peanut Butter Cookies are a grand slam!
