For a richer flavor, consider using brown butter in the shortbread base. Simply melt the butter in a saucepan over medium heat, swirling occasionally, until it turns a nutty brown color. Let it cool slightly before creaming it with the sugar. Feel free to experiment with different nuts, such as pecans, almonds, or macadamia nuts. You can also add a pinch of sea salt to the topping for a salty-sweet contrast. Make sure to store the toffee bars in an airtight container, as they can become sticky if exposed to humidity.
