Ingredients
- 10 ounces unsalted butter (2 1/2 sticks)
- 1 pound sugar (2 1/4 cups)
- 1/2 cup water
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 cups coarsely chopped pecans divided
- 8 ounces dark chocolate chips or chopped chocolate
- 1 Tablespoon pumpkin pie spice
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- Line a 10" x 15" rimmed baking with a silicon mat. Place coarsely chopped pecans on baking sheet and lightly toast pecans until barely golden brown. About 5-7 minutes. When cool, measure out 1/2 cup of the coarsely chopped pecans and chop them more finely in a food processor or by hand. These will go on top of the finished toffee. Set aside.
- Leave the remaining 1 1/2 cups toasted pecans on the baking sheet.
- Clip a candy thermometer on large, heavy bottomed sauce pan. Over medium heat, bring butter, sugar, salt and water to a boil.
- Continue cooking, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon, until temperature reaches between 305 degrees F. and 315 degrees F. (about 15 minutes) Keep an eye on it as it can quickly burn. It will have a golden caramel color.
- Remove from heat and stir in pumpkin spice.
- Carefully pour hot caramel mixture over toasted nuts, spreading with a spatula to cover nuts.
- Wait a few minutes, then sprinkle chocolate chips over hot toffee, letting it melt. Use a spatula to spread chocolate over toffee.
- Sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup finely chopped and toasted nuts over warm chocolate, and refrigerate until hard.
- Break toffee into pieces. Store in an airtight container.
- Toffee does not need to be refrigerated once it has set.
