Categories     Candy

Time 1h

Yield 20-24 pieces

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 cups real butter
2 tablespoons light corn syrup
2 2/3 cups sugar
6 tablespoons water
8 ounces milk chocolate candy bars, melted (like Hershey bars)
2 1/2 cups sliced almonds, toasted
2/3 cup toasted almond, finely chopped

Steps:

  • Melt butter in a heavy 4 quart saucepan. Add sugar syrup and water.
  • Cook mixture, stirring often to hard crack stage (300F on a candy thermometer and medium golden brown)
  • Watch carefully after syrup reaches 230F - do not over cook - it will scorch! - do not under cook - it will not be brittle. Test in cold water - it will be of brittle texture.
  • Quickly stir in the sliced toasted almonds. Turn out on large ungreased cookie sheet or jelly roll pan.
  • Melt chocolate in double boiler over hot water.
  • After candy sets, spread with melted chocolate.
  • Sprinkle finely chopped almonds over soft chocolate.

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.
