Number Of Ingredients 10

1 cup all-purpose flour
3/4 cup confectioners' sugar
1/3 cup baking cocoa
1/8 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 cup cold butter
1 (8-ounce) package reduced-fat cream cheese
1 (14-ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
2 eggs, lightly beaten
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 1/4 cups milk chocolate English toffee bits, divided

Steps:

In a small bowl, combine the flour, confectioners' sugar, cocoa and baking soda. Cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Press onto the bottom of an ungreased 13-inch x 9-inch baking dish. Bake crust at 350°F for 12 to 15 minutes or until set. In a large bowl, beat cream cheese until fluffy. Add the milk, eggs and vanilla and beat until smooth. Stir in 3/4 cup toffee bits. Pour over crust. Bake 18 to 22 minutes longer or until center is almost set. Cool on a wire rack for 15 minutes. Sprinkle with remaining toffee bits; cool completely. Cover and refrigerate for 8 hours or overnight.
