Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Line two baking trays with parchment or silicone baking mats and set aside.
Combine the butter and brown sugar in the bowl of an electric mixer. Beat with the paddle attachment until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes.
Scrape the sides of the bowl and add the eggs and egg yolk. Stir to incorporate fully and then add the vanilla and butter extract.
Whisk the flour, dry pudding mix, and baking soda in a large measuring cup or mixing bowl. Stir into the butter mixture until a dough forms, about 1 to 2 minutes.
Fold in the toffee bits.
Scoop 2 tablespoons of dough, roll, and place on a baking tray. Repeat with the remaining dough, placing 2 inches apart.
Bake 8-10 minutes, or until the edges begin to curl and lightly brown.
Notes
No butterscotch pudding mix? No problem. Try using vanilla pudding instead.
