Melt In Your Mouth Toffee

This was an easy recipe to follow. Instead of using walnuts, I used, salted roasted pistachio nuts and a teaspoon of vanilla extract. It turned out great and very tasty.

I added the 3 Tbsp of Corn syrup and 3 Tbsp of water to butter, as listed in other review. Turned out great!

I’ve made it twice now. Both times I had about 1/2 C of pure yellow butter pour out after the brown sugary mixture pours out. If you put the nuts and then choc chips in pan first, many of the nuts will not imbed into the mix and the chips will be soft, but still whole. Use a bigger pan than 9x13 because it’s too thick. Two 8x8 pans would be perfect so a knife can cut through the whole length at once. Pour the mix into an untreated pan, then add nuts and use spatula to push them down in. Then add choc chips and smooth the top of them after they melt with a silicone spatula. I used sliced almonds and chopped walnuts. Both are good. I heated on low flame to 300 degrees, and did not stir at all once butter melted, so why did some of the butter separate? After it cools in the pan, it can easily be flipped over onto a cutting board. It pops out of a movable pan easily, so no need for parchment paper.

Followed the actual recipe with one substitution: sliced almonds in place of walnuts. Included the toffee on goody trays for the holiday. The toffee was my latest addition and it was a huge hit. Super easy, and a keeper.

A very easy and yummy candy, however there was a very slight layer of butter on the top.
