SIMPLE BUTTER TOFFEE RECIPE

Steps:

• To make this delicious candy recipe, combine water, butter, sugar and salt in a saucepan. Cook this mixture until it reaches 300 F and use a wooden spoon to stir the mixture continuously.
• Once done, pour the mixture to a baking tray and let it cool until it becomes hard.
• Meanwhile, melt the chocolate chips and spread it over the toffee.
• Next, coarsely break the pecans and sprinkle them over the chocolate.
• Let the toffee stand for 2-3 hours. Once chilled, cut it into bite size pieces and serve immediately!

BEST TOFFEE EVER - SUPER EASY

Steps:

• In a large heavy bottomed saucepan, combine the butter, sugar and salt. Cook over medium heat, stirring until the butter is melted. Allow to come to a boil, and cook until the mixture becomes a dark amber color, and the temperature has reached 285 degrees F (137 degrees C). Stir occasionally.
• While the toffee is cooking, cover a large baking sheet with aluminum foil or parchment paper.
• As soon as the toffee reaches the proper temperature, pour it out onto the prepared baking sheet. Sprinkle the chocolate over the top, and let it set for a minute or two to soften. Spread the chocolate into a thin even layer once it is melted. Sprinkle the nuts over the chocolate, and press in slightly. Putting a plastic bag over your hand will minimize the mess.
• Place the toffee in the refrigerator to chill until set. Break into pieces, and store in an airtight container.

EASY BUTTER TOFFEE

Steps:

• Rub the top of a microwavable mixing bowl with (extra) butter. Place butter into bowl. Pour sugar directly on butter. Add salt and water.
• Cook approximately 7-8 minutes (sometimes I have seen some microwaves take up to 12 minutes). Start watching at this point so as not to overcook. Candy is done when it's the color of a Heath bar or brown sugar.
• Pour mixture over sliced almonds on a buttered cookie sheet. Don't scrape the bowl! Cool!
• Top with melted chocolate (and more almonds if you wish) and let cool some more.
• Break into pieces and serve. (I use a regular table knife -- just be sure not to cut into your cookie sheet!) Enjoy!
