How to Make English Toffee Candy
- Grease a large baking sheet and set aside.
- In a heavy-bottomed 3-quart saucepan, combine 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, 1 ½ cups granulated sugar, and ¼ cup water.
- Cook over medium-high heat, stirring constantly, until the sugar dissolves completely.
- Continue cooking, without stirring, until the mixture reaches 305°F (152°C) on a candy thermometer. This indicates the hard-crack stage.
- Immediately pour the hot toffee mixture onto the prepared baking sheet and spread evenly.
- While still warm, sprinkle 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips evenly over the toffee.
- Let the chocolate sit for a few minutes to soften, then spread it evenly using a butter knife or spatula.
- Sprinkle 1 cup of your favorite chopped nuts over the chocolate, gently shaking the pan to distribute them evenly.
- Let the toffee cool completely and harden at room temperature (about 1-2 hours).
- Once completely hard, break the toffee into pieces.
- Store in an airtight container at room temperature.
