4-Ingredient Chocolate Nut Toffee
This is the simplest toffee recipe ever. I love it because it only takes 4 ingredients that I always have around the house. Follow a few easy steps and voila--instant gratification! This recipe makes great Holiday gifts for the neighbors (they'll think you slaved over a hot stove all day, but the truth will be our little secret!).
Ingredients
4 serv.Step-by-step instructions
- 1
Melt the butter over medium heat in a large saucepan. Stir in the sugar.
- 2
Stir constantly until the toffee mixture turns a lovely caramel color. (You don't necessarily need a candy thermometer, but if you want to use one, the mixture is at around 280-300°F at this point).
- 3
You can add the nuts now, or wait and sprinkle them on top of the chocolate.
- 4
Carefully pour the hot toffee onto a large cookie sheet (a rimmed cookie sheet or you'll coat your counter with hot toffee) that's been lightly coated with cooking spray.
- 5
After a few minutes, when the toffee begins to set up but is still hot, sprinkle the chocolate chips on top.
- 6
Once melted, spread out the chocolate to evenly coat the toffee. If you didn't already mix in the nuts, sprinkle them on top of the still warm chocolate -- or mix the nuts in AND sprinkle them on top, knock yourself out.
- 7
Once the toffee is completely cooled, you can break it up into bite size pieces.
