Chocolate and almonds top off a rich buttery toffee. A simple recipe that you could easily remember and whip up any time. I always get compliments and requests for more. Use any type of nut that you like in place of the almonds.

Time 1h20m

Yield 32

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 cups butter
2 cups white sugar
¼ teaspoon salt
2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
1 cup finely chopped almonds

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.

CHEWY TOFFEES



Chewy toffees image

Treat yourself to the ultimate sweet treat - chewy toffee. Toffees aren't hard to make, but remember to be careful when you're dealing with very hot sugar

Provided by Barney Desmazery

Categories     Treat

Time 30m

Yield Cuts into about 40 squares

Number Of Ingredients 5

200g caster sugar (golden is fine)
100g dark brown sugar
300ml double cream
125g butter , cubed
1 tsp vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Neatly line the base and sides of a 20x30cm baking tin with baking parchment. Tip the sugars, cream and butter into a large heavy-based deep saucepan and heat gently, stirring occasionally until all the ingredients have come together and the sugars and butter have melted. Place a sugar thermometer or digital cooking thermometer in the pan, turn up the heat and boil everything together vigorously without stirring until the temperature reaches 125C. Remove from the heat and stir in the vanilla. Leave for a moment for any bubbles to settle, then carefully pour the molten toffee into the prepared tin, swirling the tin until the toffee covers the base. Leave the toffee for at least 2hrs to set - overnight is ideal.
  • Use the parchment to lift the set toffee out of the tin and cut into squares or fingers. If the toffee is sticking to the knife, lightly oil the blade. Wrap the toffees in waxed paper and store in a jar for up to two weeks at room temperature or a month in the fridge.

QUICK AND EASY MICROWAVE BUTTER TOFFEE



Quick and Easy Microwave Butter Toffee image

I made this recipe without the chocolate chip and nuts topping to use as plain toffee bits in recipes and it is very delicious. I was surprised at how easy it is to make. I used light corn syrup cause it was all I had on hand and it worked just fine, also if your mixture seems to be separating at the end it just takes a bit of muscle to mix it all back together, quickly pour it onto your prepared pan and leave to set.

EASY BUTTER TOFFEE

This microwave recipe was given to me by my mom about 20 years ago. It is sooo easy to make and tastes delicious!

Provided by MissJennifer

Categories     Candy

Time 15m

Yield 20 pieces approx. - depends on size, 10-20 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1/2 cup butter (keep extra available)
1 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup water
4 ounces milk chocolate
sliced almonds (optional)

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!
