Best Toffee Chocolate Kiss Recipes

CHOCOLATE TOFFEE

Steps:

• Line a sided sheet pan with a silicone baking mat, or oil it well with vegetable oil (or use a heavyweight nonstick sheet pan).
• Pour the sugar into the center of a saucepan fitted with a candy thermometer. Pour the water around the edge of the pan and wait to allow the water to moisten the sugar. (You can draw a clean finger through the center of the pan to allow some water to seep in.) Add the corn syrup and bring to a boil. Add the butter and boil until the mixture reaches 300 degrees F.
• Turn off the heat and whisk in the cocoa; then stir in the nuts. Quickly pour the mixture onto the center of the prepared pan and let it spread out - it may not reach the sides of the pan. Set aside to cool at room temperature until hard. Using your hands (I wear gloves to avoid fingerprints), pry the toffee out of the pan and break into large pieces. Store in an airtight container. The toffee will keep well for up to 2 weeks in an airtight container.

TOFFEE CHOCOLATE KISS

Steps:

• 1. Preheat oven to 350. Line pans with parchment paper or lightly spray pans...or the toffee will stick.
• 2. In a large bowl, beat butter at medium speed until creamy, add sugar, beating well, add vanilla mixing well.
• 3. In a medium bowl, sift or whisk together flour, powder and salt. Gradually add to creamed mixture, mixing well, until it 'starts' to come together, then add toffee and pecans, if desired. Dough will be crumbly, see photo.
• 4. Step 4 - #1 - For Kiss on top of cookie. Shape dough into 1-1 1/2" balls, squeeze dough together and then roll into a ball. If it breaks apart, squeeze together again then roll. Place onto prepared cookie sheets. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until just starts to brown along bottom edge. Remove from oven, immediately press Kiss into center of each cookie. Remove from cookie sheet to cooling racks.
• 5. Step 4 - #2 - For Kiss inside of cookie. Shape dough into 1 1/2" balls, squeezing dough together and then rolling, push a Kiss, tip first into the ball, using a little more dough to cover bottom if needed. Roll again, gently to make nice ball shape. Place onto prepared cookie sheets. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until just starts to brown along bottom edge. Cool on pan 2 minutes, then remove from cookie sheet to cooling racks.
• 6. TIPS: I had mentioned in the above note, about turning your kiss upside down makes for an ugly cookie...than a Just a Pinch member, Carol Harpel/Kitzer mentioned that doing that makes for easier shipping to our troops overseas or any shipping for that matter...Wonderful Idea!!! ANOTHER TIP: Member Jill Hanses mentioned spreading the kiss over the top, another Wonderful Idea!!! To do this I would remove cookies from oven, place kiss on top of each cookie, then remove cookies to cooling racks. Wait 10ish minutes (the heat from the cookie will melt the chocolate) then spread chocolate over top. Allow to cool and set up. You can place in frig or freezer to hurry the chocolate back to a solid state. Enjoy!!!

COFFEE-TOFFEE CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. Whisk the flour, baking soda and salt in a medium bowl. Beat the butter, espresso powder and brown sugar in a large bowl with a mixer on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Beat in the egg and vanilla until smooth. Reduce the mixer speed to low, then gradually beat in the flour mixture until just combined. Stir in the dark chocolate chips and toffee bars.
• Roll the dough into 1 1/2-inch balls and arrange 2 inches apart on the prepared pans. Bake, switching the pans halfway through, until the cookies are puffed and just set around the edges, about 15 minutes. Let cool 10 minutes on the pans, then transfer to a rack to cool completely.
• Melt the white chocolate chips in the microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring, until smooth. Drizzle over one side of each cookie and decorate with sprinkles. Refrigerate until set, about 30 minutes.

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.

BROWN BUTTER TOFFEE CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Make the toffee: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• In a medium nonstick saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter, brown sugar, and salt, stirring until evenly incorporated. If there are grainy lumps or if the fat starts to separate, add a couple splashes of water and stir vigorously to emulsify. Continue to cook, stirring constantly, until the mixture reaches 290°F (143°C), about 10-15 minutes.
• Pour the toffee onto the prepared baking sheet and spread out slightly with a spatula. Freeze until ready to use, about 30 minutes.
• Make the cookie dough: Add the butter to a medium nonstick saucepan over medium-high heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the butter turns dark brown and smells nutty. Watch carefully so the butter does not burn. Remove the pot from the heat.
• Add an ice cube to the butter and slowly let it melt. It may froth and bubble. Add the remaining 3 ice cubes and gently stir until melted.
• In a large bowl, combine the granulated and brown sugar, espresso powder, salt, and baking soda.
• Pour the brown butter into the sugar mixture and mix until combined. Don't worry if it looks separated.
• In a small bowl, whisk together the eggs and vanilla. Pour into the sugar and butter mixture and whisk until glossy and smooth.
• Add the flour and fold with a rubber spatula to incorporate until the dough has no visible flour streaks.
• Remove the toffee from the freezer (it should be a frozen disc) and break it into chunks that will fit inside a gallon zip-top bag. Double bag the toffee and seal both bags. With a rolling pin, break the toffee into small pieces.
• Fold the crushed toffee and chopped chocolate into the dough until evenly distributed.
• Using a large ice cream scoop or a ½ cup (65 g) measure, scoop the dough onto a parchment-lined baking sheet. Wrap the baking sheet in plastic wrap, but leave a small opening at the corner of the tray. Let the dough rest in the refrigerator for at least 36 hours. This will allow the flavor to develop and the dough to dry out a little as it rests, which will result in less spread when it bakes.
• When ready to bake, preheat the oven to 325°F (163°C). Line 2 baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Arrange the cookies on the baking sheets, leaving at least 2 inches (5 cm) of space between the cookies and away from the edges of the pan.
• Bake until the cookies are golden brown with crispy edges, but are still slightly soft in the center, 18-20 minutes.
• Immediately sprinkle the cookies with flaky sea salt. then let cool completely. The cookies will be very soft at first but will set after they are fully cooled.
• Enjoy!
