Ingredients
- ½ cup coarsely chopped pecans
- 1 cup unsalted butter cut into pieces
- 1 ½ cup brown sugar packed
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup milk chocolate chips
Instructions
- Spray a 9x13 inch pan with cooking spray and line with parchment paper.
- Spread the chopped pecans in a single layer on top of the parchment paper.
- Add butter and brown sugar to a 3 quart heavy bottomed pot. Hook a candy thermometer on the side of the pan.
- Bring to a boil over medium low heat, stirring frequently to dissolve the sugar.
- Once the candy is boiling, stir continuously slowly and evenly, until the candy has reached 290 degrees Fahrenheit to 300° degrees Fahrenheit, or "hard crack" on a candy thermometer.
- Once the candy has reached 290 degrees Fahrenheit -300 degrees Fahrenheit, remove from heat and gently stir in the vanilla extract.
- Carefully pour the mixture over the chopped pecans into the prepared 9x13 inch pan.
- Let the candy sit for a few minutes, undisturbed, then sprinkle the chocolate chips evenly over the top of the candy.
- Cover the pan with foil and let sit for 5 minutes or until the chocolate has softened.
- Remove the foil and gently spread the softened chocolate into an even layer with a spatula.
- Place the candy in the refrigerator and let cool completely for at least 2 hours.
- Lift the parchment out of the baking dish and place the toffee on a cutting board or solid surface.
- Use a knife to gently break it into smaller pieces. Store in an airtight container in a cool place
