HOW DO YOU MAKE BUTTER TOFFEE RECIPES

Steps:

• Butter 2 (15x10x1-inch) baking pans; set aside.
• Combine all ingredients except nuts and chocolate chips in heavy 3-quart saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until butter is melted.
• Reduce heat to medium-low. Cook 25-40 minutes, stirring occasionally, until candy thermometer reaches 300°F or small amount of mixture dropped into cold water forms hard brittle strands. Stir in 1 cup nuts.
• Pour mixture evenly into prepared pans; spread to desired thickness. Sprinkle 1 cup chocolate chips over each pan; let stand 5 minutes. Spread melted chocolate evenly over candy. Sprinkle with remaining 1/2 cup nuts. Cool at least 3 hours. Break into pieces.
• Store in container with tight-fitting lid, in cool dry place, up to 3 weeks.

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.
