Toffee Recipe

Ingredients

How to make it

  • Grease bottom and sides of square pan, 9 x 9 x 2 inches, with butter. Spread pecans in pan.
  • Heat brown sugar and butter to boiling in 1 1/2-quart saucepan over medium heat, stirring constantly. Boil 7 minutes, stirring constantly. Immediately spread over pecans.
  • Sprinkle chocolate chips over hot toffee. Cover pan with cookie sheet. Let stand about 1 minute or until chocolate chips soften. Spread softened chocolate over candy. Cut into squares while hot (or let it cool, and break into pieces for a more irregular look). Refrigerate until firm, about 2 hours. You can also cool on the counter until firm (takes longer, but doesn't hog refrigerator room during the holidays).
  • *Store loosely covered in a cool, dry place (if it lasts long enough to store). Airtight containers and/or refrigeration can cause it to become sticky.

    toffee is very thankful to do
    one really has to forget it on to make it awful.
    and so easy to added whatever flavouring you want.
    coconot flakes, orange peel, lemon peel, lots of dark chocolate, a variety of nuts or vanilla, etc

    also the type of syrup and sugar can play a big role on the flavour: dark syrup (melass) / real brown mascovado will give a more heavy flavour, i.e. if you keep just below or at the ball forming point.

    i guess one could buy an thermometer to get it the same each time, but that is too professional, more fun to drip and taste once every once and then :-)

    I realized that I had left out a line in the directions. Corrected to add the line 'Boil 7 minutes, stirring constantly'. Sorry if there was any confusion. - Nat

    Toffee is my favorite candy. And I don't even need a thermometer. This will be on my holiday list too. I'll have to make a sample batch just to be sure:).
