Ingredients:
- 226 grams (1 cup) unsalted butter
- 200 grams (1 cup) granulated sugar
- 2 grams (1/4 teaspoon) fine sea salt
- 5 ml (1 teaspoon) pure vanilla extract
- 265 grams (1 1/2 cups) semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 70 grams (1/2 cup) chopped almonds or pecans (optional)
How to Make Your Own Perfect Homemade Toffee
Line a baking tray with parchment for easy toffee removal post-cooling.
Melt unsalted butter in a thick-bottomed pot, stir in sugar and sea salt, and wait for the mixture to become a golden conductor of flavor.
Monitor the temperature closely until it hits the “hard crack” stage, precisely 300°F (149°C) for that perfect toffee snap.
Off the heat, stir in the vanilla extract for a fragrant twist.
Spread the mixture on your tray; patience is key as you wait for the chocolate chips to melt into a smooth layer.
If desired, scatter your choice of chopped nuts for an added textural symphony.
Let the toffee sit until it’s cool, firm, and ready to break into shareable treasures.
Notes:
Consider using a candy thermometer to nail the exact temperature for optimal consistency. And remember, making toffee is like conducting an orchestra – it takes timing, precision, and a passion for the craft.
Homemade Toffee is a delightful journey into the world of candy making, a journey well worth the destination. Once you’ve tasted the rich, buttery flavors interlaced with chocolate, you’ll understand why this toffee is more than a treat—it’s a piece of home.
