Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 5

10-12 pieces bacon, cooked crisp and cut into 1/4"pieces
1/4 c water
1 stick butter unsalted
1 pinch salt
1 c sugar

Steps:

  • 1. Over medium-high heat, cook till the mixture reaches 285F, stirring often. In practice, this means that you cook it until it's a good toffee color. Really, keep stirring throughout the process. Pull it off heat, mix in the bacon bits, (sometimes I add unsalted, shelled peanuts) and pour onto the baking sheet. Spread quickly to about 1/4" thick, and let cool for 2 hours.
  • 2. Using a hammer or the handle of a large knife, break the toffee into shards. This is best accomplished by whacking it through a folded paper towel.
