Easy Homemade Toffee
Easy Homemade Toffee features buttery caramel cooked until almond brown, spread over toasted almonds, then topped with semi-sweet chocolate chips and pecans. Once cooled, the combination yields a crisp, crunchy toffee with nutty layers and a smooth chocolate finish. This toffee is both rich and texturally satisfying, suitable for gifting or snacking.
Ingredients
- 1 cup almond raw
- 1 cup butter cubed, unsalted
- 1 cup sugar
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 1 ½ cups chocolate chips semi-sweet
- ⅓ cup pecans chopped
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
- Spread almonds in an even layer onto the prepared baking sheet. Place into oven and bake until toasted, about 10 minutes; set aside.
- In a medium saucepan, combine butter, sugar vanilla and salt over medium heat. Cook, whisking constantly, until butter has melted and mixture is almond brown in color, about 10-15 minutes.
- Immediately spread the hot toffee mixture evenly over the almonds. Sprinkle with chocolate chips. After 1-2 minutes, spread the chocolate chips in an even layer until smooth. Sprinkle with pecans.
- Let cool completely, about 2 hours. Break into pieces.
