English Toffee
-Recipe from Donna Ralph-
Ingredients:
½ cup butter
1 cup sugar
1tsp. salt
¼ cup water
½ cup chopped pecans
¼ cup finely chopped pecans
¾ cup chocolate chips
Step 1: Add 1/2 cup butter, 1 cup sugar, 1tsp. salt, and 1/4 cup water to bowl
*Make sure this is a microwave safe bowl*
Step 2: Put ingredients in microwave for 8 minutes
Step 3: In the meantime butter your baking dish!
Tip: I would recommend a 6x9 baking dish, mixture should be spread relatively thin!
Step 4: Chop pecan in food processor
*They should be about the size of the pecans below*
Step 5: Fill bottom of baking dish with chopped pecans
*Take mixture out of microwave...this is the way it should look when it comes out*
Step 6: Spread toffee mixture over the pecans in the bottom of the baking dish
Step 7: Let toffee cool for about 2 minutes and measure out 3/4 cup chocolate chips
*Spread chocolate chips over toffee mixture and spread once they are beginning to melt*
*This is the way the toffee should look once the chocolate is fully melter*
Step 8: Sprinkle 1/4 cup of finely chopped pecans over toffee
*This is how the toffee should look before broken into pieces*
Step 9: Put toffee in fridge to cool for a minimum of 2 hours or leave overnight
Step 10: Using knife loosen up the toffee in baking dish then break into pieces
Find a nice holiday tin and fill with the toffee!!
ENJOY! (Happy Christmas Eve!)
