Welcome to peak cookie season! I’m sure you need another cookie recipe like a hole in the head right now. But here I am with a recipe for these Salted Toffee Cashew Cookies. I’m sorry, they were too good not to share. These golden beauties are classic slice-and-bake shortbread cookies packed with butterscotch chips, Skor bits, and cashews. The cookies are then rolled in Maldon salt and raw sugar before being sliced and baked until golden. Loving this recipe requires having a taste for salty-sweet combos. So if that is your idea of a good time, let’s get into it!

I’m not what you would call a cookie person. I know, I know. I must be some kind of reverse Cookie Monster. It’s not that I hate cookies; hate is far too strong a word. It’s just that I’m underwhelmed by cookies. I don’t find them all that interesting in terms of flavor or appearance. I should also probably mention I don’t have the biggest sweet tooth in the first place. So maybe I’m not the person to ask for hot dessert-related takes. But now and then a cookie idea wanders into my head and I am instantly smitten. And that was precisely the case with these Strawberry Cheesecake Cookies. These blushing beauties are so compelling that they’re capable of converting a reverse Cookie Monster like me.
