English Toffee

So in less than 24 hours I have made 3 bathes of this stuff and we have eaten almost all of it ourselves. I am embarrassed to say that, but it is so good and so addicting!! This is a quick yummy candy that makes a great neighbor gift...if you have any left after you sample it :)


English Toffee
2 sticks of Butter (only the real stuff - that goes for all my cooking, NEVER margarine, got it)
1 cup sugar
1/4 tsp salt

Put on high heat (I don't do my highest setting, but the one just below it) and stir rapidly until butter and sugar combine. Continue to stir and cook until a light brown color (think of a brown paper sack). Take off heat and stir in 1/2 tsp vanilla. Pour on silpat mat that is on a cookie sheet and using a rubber spatula spread out as thin as you can, or want. Top with grated chocolate bar or milk chocolate chips. Then spread the chocolate. Allow the chocolate to set and then break into pieces.

This is the color we are looking for to be complete

This is spread out on topped with the chocolate, the heat of the toffee melts the chocolate

Spread the goodness all around!
