Holy Crap Bars

Okay, they are actually called chocolate chip toffee bars, but HOLY CRAP they are good! We made these tonight, the recipe is from my Hershey cookbook but I've seen it posted all over the web so I think I am not violating any copyrights.

2 1/3 c flour
2/3 c packed brown sugar
3/4 c butter or margarine
1 egg, slightly beaten
2 cups chocolate chips
1 cup chopped nuts (I used pecans)
14 oz sweetened condensed milk
1 1/3 cups Heath toffee bits

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease a 9x13" baking pan.

1. Combine flour and sugar in large bowl. Cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add egg, mix well. Stir in 1 1/2 c of the chocolate chips and the chopped nuts. Set aside 1 1/2 cups of the mixture.
2. Press remaining mixture on the bottom of the greased baking pan, and bake for 10 minutes.
3. Pour condensed milk over hot crust. Set aside 1/4 cup of the toffee bits, sprinkle the remainder over the condensed milk. Sprinkle remaining crumb mixture and the reserved chocolate chips over top of the toffee.
4. Bake for 25-30 minutes. Remove from oven, sprinkle the reserved toffee chips over top. Let cool and cut into bars.
