CHOCO TOFFEE RECIPES

Steps:

• Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. In a saucepan over medium heat, combine butter, sugar, vanilla, and salt. Let butter melt and sugar dissolve and bring to a boil, then cook, stirring constantly with a whisk, so the butter and sugar don't separate, until mixture turns a dark amber and is thick, 12 to 15 minutes. (If you'd like to use a candy thermometer for this step, attach it to the saucepan and cook until the temperature reaches 285º.) Pour toffee mixture onto a prepared baking sheet and immediately top all over with chocolate chips. Let sit 2 minutes so chocolate begins to melt, then spread chocolate all over with a spatula to create a layer on top of toffee. Sprinkle all over with almonds and pecans (use chopped crumbs too for nice texture!) and flaky sea salt. Refrigerate until set, about 1 hour, then cut or break into pieces and serve.

Steps:

• Butter 13x9-inch baking pan; set aside.
• Combine butter, sugar, water and salt in heavy 2-quart saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, 7-9 minutes or until mixture comes to a full boil. Continue cooking, stirring occasionally, 18-22 minutes or until candy thermometer reaches 300°F or small amount of mixture dropped into ice water forms a hard brittle strand. Remove from heat; stir in vanilla.
• Pour mixture onto prepared pan; spread to cover bottom of pan. Sprinkle chocolate chips over hot candy; let stand 5 minutes. Spread melted chocolate evenly over candy.
• Cool completely; break into pieces.
