  • Recipe Submitted by on

Category: Desserts, Candy, Holiday

 Ingredients List

  • 1 1/4 c (2-1/2 sticks) unsalted butt
  • 1 1/4 c Packed light-brown sugar
  • 1/4 c Water
  • 1 tb Honey
  • 1 c Toasted and skinned hazelnut
  • -chopped
  • 1/4 ts Vanilla extract
  • 1 c Semisweet chocolate chips
  • -(about 6 ounces)

 Directions

Butter a small baking sheet. Melt the butter over low heat in a large heavy
saucepan. Add the sugar, water, and honey and stir constantly until melted,
using a wooden spoon. Increase the heat to moderately high and continue
cooking for 15 minutes, or till the mixture reaches 290 degrees (hard-ball
stage) on a candy thermometer, stirring often with a wooden spatula,
scraping the bottom of the pan to make sure the mixture is not sticking.
Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the chopped nuts and vanilla
extract. Pour the toffee evenly onto the prepared baking sheet. Cool about
5 minutes, until the surface is barely set. Sprinkle the top of the toffee
with the chocolate chips. Let stand about 10 minutes, until the toffee is
completely set and the chocolate is melted. Spread the chocolate evenly in
a thin layer over the toffee. Cool completely until the chocolate is firm.
Break the toffee into rough pieces and store in an airtight container for
up to 5 days. Makes about 1 pound. Source: "An Edible Christmas" cookbook
