The Heath bar is a candy bar which has risen in popularity across the US after the idea came about to include it as an ingredient in various confections, including cookies and ice cream. The simple toffee bar with a smooth milk chocolate coating can be found in such sweet creations as the Heath Bar Shake by Baskin Robbins, Heath Bar Crunch ice cream by Ben & Jerry's, and Heath Bar Klondike bars.

It seems having this toffee bar around is useful for more than just calming that midnight sweet tooth craving, as it can be that special something which transforms your next batch of cookies or tub of ice cream into a delightful experiment in flavour and texture.
