4 Ingredient Toffee Recipes

4 INGREDIENT TOFFEE

Steps:

• Heat sugar, butter and water to boiling in heavy 2-quart saucepan, stirring constantly; reduce heat to medium. Cook about 13 minutes, stirring constantly, to 300°F on candy thermometer or until small amount of mixture dropped into cup of very cold water separates into hard, brittle threads. (Watch carefully so mixture does not burn.)
• Immediately pour toffee onto ungreased large cookie sheet. If necessary, quickly spread mixture to 1/4-inch thickness. Sprinkle with chocolate chips; let stand about 1 minute or until chips are completely softened. Spread softened chocolate evenly over toffee. Sprinkle with pecans.
• Let stand at room temperature about 1 hour, or refrigerate if desired, until firm. Break into bite-size pieces. Store in airtight container.

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.

4-INGREDIENT CHOCOLATE NUT TOFFEE

Steps:

• Melt the butter over medium heat in a large saucepan. Stir in the sugar.
• 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).
• You can add the nuts now, or wait and sprinkle them on top of the chocolate.
• 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.
• After a few minutes, when the toffee begins to set up but is still hot, sprinkle the chocolate chips on top.
• 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.
• Once the toffee is completely cooled, you can break it up into bite size pieces.
