This is one of those can't eat just one things. Believe me, if you leave a dish of them out and have a crowd around, better have another batch for back up... Ingredients:
1 cup sugar |
3/4 cup dark brown sugar |
1/2 cup heavy cream |
1/4 cup corn syrup |
3 tablespoons cocoa powder |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
3 tablespoons butter |
1/2 teaspoon vanilla |
1 cup toffee pieces |
Directions:
1. Lay several sheets of parchment on a baking sheet or countertop.
2. In a saucepan, stir together sugar, brown sugar, cream, corn syrup, cocoa powder, and salt. Cook over medium heat without stirring until mixture reaches 230° (soft ball stage).
3. Remove from heat and add butter and vanilla. Cool for a few minutes and stir for a few more minutes until mixture thickens slightly. Immediately drop by spoonfuls onto parchment and top with a sprinkling of toffee bits. Cool completely and peel off of parchment.
4. Notes: Add a few chopped pecans to toffee bits for a more elegant taste.
5. Also, if you can, have a second person work with you to sprinkle the toffee bits onto these. They tend to stick better when placed on the candies while they are warm.
