How to Make Aunt Norma's Chocolate Nut Toffee
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease an 8x8 inch baking pan.
- Spread the mixed nuts evenly across the bottom of the prepared pan.
- In a heavy-bottomed saucepan over medium-high heat, combine the butter and brown sugar.
- Bring the mixture to a rolling boil, stirring constantly.
- Continue boiling for exactly 7 minutes, stirring constantly to prevent burning. The mixture will thicken.
- Carefully pour the hot toffee mixture evenly over the nuts in the prepared pan, ensuring all nuts are completely coated.
- Sprinkle the semi-sweet chocolate chips evenly over the hot toffee.
- Let the pan sit, uncovered, until the chocolate chips have melted and softened (about 5-7 minutes).
- Using a spatula or knife, spread the melted chocolate evenly over the toffee.
- Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until the toffee is completely set.
- Once set, turn the toffee out onto a cutting board and break into bite-sized pieces.
