How to Make Molasses Toffees
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 15x10 inch baking pan.
- In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) shortening, 1 ½ cups granulated sugar, 1 teaspoon baking soda, ½ teaspoon salt, and 1 cup molasses until light and fluffy.
- Gradually blend in 3 cups all-purpose flour and 1 cup chopped nuts (walnuts or pecans recommended).
- Pour batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until edges are lightly golden and the center is set. A toothpick inserted in the center should come out with moist crumbs.
- Let cool completely in the pan before cutting into squares. Enjoy!
