From mystic_river1 16 years agoIngredients
- For Toffee: shopping list
- - 1 cup sugar shopping list
- - 1/2 cup water shopping list
- - 1/2 cup (1 stick) butter shopping list
- - 1/2 teaspoon salt shopping list
- - 3/4 cup espresso beans shopping list
- For Glaze: shopping list
- - 1/2 cup chocolate pieces shopping list
- - 2 Tablespoons strong coffee shopping list

How to make it
- Start by liberally greasing a cookie sheet or other large, flat, clean surface with butter.
- Combine all ingredients except espresso beans in a large saucepan.
- Attach your candy thermometer and start heating.
- Stir constantly. Be aware the mixture will have a tendency to foam at lower temps.
- This tendency will be somewhat reduced once the water has boiled off.
- continue to heat, stirring very frequently, until you reach the magical candy-making temperature of 285 Fahrenheit (140.5 C). Immediately remove from heat and stir in espresso beans.
- Pour onto the greased cookie sheet to cool.
- Once the toffee has cooled, it's ready for a glaze.
- This particular glaze isn't completely solid at room temperature - its texture resembles a dense frosting, but the flavor is outstanding.
- Combine sugar and coffee in a saucepan.
- Bring just to a boil, then remove from heat and stir in the chocolate.
- You can thin this mixture by slowly adding coffee, no more than 1/4 teaspoon at a time, until it reaches the desired pouring texture.
- Drizzle over your toffee.
- Allow to cool and it's ready to eat.
