9 of 10 of my Christmas candies. I love toffee and my family does, too. I usually have to make 2 - 3 batches of this. No problem, though! A few ingredients and a few minutes and voila! Toffee! Ingredients:
1 c. pecans, chopped |
3/4 c. packed brown sugar |
1/2 c. butter |
1/2 c. semi-sweet chocolate chips |
additional butter, for pan |
Directions:
1. Grease bottom and sides of square pan, 9 x 9 x 2 inches, with butter. Spread pecans in pan.
2. Heat brown sugar and butter to boiling in 1 1/2-quart saucepan over medium heat, stirring constantly. Boil 7 minutes, stirring constantly. Immediately spread over pecans.
3. Sprinkle chocolate chips over hot toffee. Cover pan with cookie sheet. Let stand about 1 minute or until chocolate chips soften. Spread softened chocolate over candy. Cut into squares while hot (or let it cool, and break into pieces for a more irregular look). Refrigerate until firm, about 2 hours. You can also cool on the counter until firm (takes longer, but doesn't hog refrigerator room during the holidays).
4. *Store loosely covered in a cool, dry place (if it lasts long enough to store). Airtight containers and/or refrigeration can cause it to become sticky.
