Ingredients:
- 1 cup chocolate chips
- 1/4 cup butter

- 1/4 cup chopped toffee bars

Instructions:
| Step | Description |
|---|---|
| 1 | Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). |
| 2 | Grease a 9 x 13-inch baking pan, ensuring even coverage to prevent sticking. |
| 3 | In a large mixing bowl, combine the cake mix, oil, coffee, chocolate chips, and eggs. Stir until well combined, ensuring all ingredients are fully incorporated. |
| 4 | Press half of the cookie dough mixture into the bottom of the prepared pan, spreading it out evenly to form the base layer. |
| 5 | Bake the crust for 8 minutes, allowing it to partially set. |
| 6 | While the crust bakes, prepare the caramel layer. In the top of a double boiler, melt the butter, caramel candies, coffee, and sweetened condensed milk until smooth and creamy, ensuring the caramels are fully melted. Stir frequently to prevent burning. |
| 7 | Once the crust is partially baked, remove it from the oven and carefully pour the melted caramel mixture over the top, spreading it out evenly with a spatula. |
| 8 | Sprinkle 1/2 cup of chopped pecans over the caramel layer, distributing them evenly for added crunch and flavor. |
| 9 | Drop spoonfuls of the remaining cookie dough evenly over the caramel and pecan layer, covering the surface as much as possible. |
| 10 | Sprinkle the chopped toffee bars and remaining 1/2 cup of chopped pecans over the top of the cookie dough, pressing them gently into the dough for better adhesion. |
| 11 | Return the pan to the oven and bake for an additional 25-30 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the center is set. |
| 12 | Once baked, remove the pan from the oven and allow it to cool completely on a wire rack. |
| 13 | Once cooled, cut the Toffee Coffee Cookies into squares using a sharp knife, ensuring clean cuts for neat presentation. |
| 14 | Serve and enjoy these irresistible treats with a hot cup of coffee or your favorite beverage. Store any leftovers in an airtight container to maintain freshness. |
