Chocolate Toffee Cookies

What a waste of time and ingredients!

I have no idea what could have gone so wrong but these cookies are just plain nasty. They spread so much in the oven that they are completely flat. I thought they smelled funny, too but ignored that until I tasted them. They taste disgusting with some kind of weird after taste.

The Heath bits did not have an expiration date on them but they were not clumped together in the bag nor did they look "off". I threw the rest of the batter away and will toss all the cookies.
