THE BEST ENGLISH TOFFEE

The Best English Toffee image

I had originally made a zaar recipe, but then realized I had made a HUGE mistake and it turned out FANTASTIC. The toffee has the best soft crunch. I made it again correctly and it was not as good, so with the mistake I think I can call it my own now??

Number Of Ingredients 6

Ingredients

1 lb butter
1 cup sugar
1/4 cup water
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chocolate chips
1 chopped cup nuts

Steps:

In heavy saucepan, combine butter, sugar, water, and salt.
Cook to hard-crack stage (300°F) stirring constantly and watching carefully.
Immediately pour into foil lined and greased 13"x9" pan.
Melt chips in a bowl in the microwave in increments of 30-15 seconds, stirring well in between until chips pretty much melted.
Spatula the chocolate onto the toffee and spread evenly.
Sprinkle the nuts.
To be able to break in nice squares if you'd like, after the toffee has set a little while (15-20 min or so) use a pizza cutter to score the candy.
Cool until hard.
