How to Make Simply Easy Buttery Toffee
- Line a 15x10 inch baking pan with foil, leaving an overhang on the sides for easy lifting.
- In a 3-quart saucepan, melt 1 cup (2 sticks) of unsalted butter over medium heat.
- Stir in 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar, 1/2 cup light corn syrup, and 1/3 cup water.
- Cook over medium-high heat, stirring gently and constantly, until the sugar is completely dissolved and the mixture comes to a boil.
- Clip on a candy thermometer.
- Reduce heat to medium and continue cooking, stirring frequently, until the mixture reaches 290°F (143°C).
- Remove the candy thermometer.
- Immediately pour the mixture into the prepared pan and spread evenly.
- Let cool for 5 minutes.
- Sprinkle 1 cup of semi-sweet chocolate chips evenly over the warm toffee.
- Let stand for 2 minutes to allow the chocolate to slightly melt.
- Spread the melted chocolate evenly over the toffee using a spatula or knife.
- Sprinkle 1/2 cup of chopped nuts over the chocolate.
- Gently press the nuts into the chocolate.
- Let cool completely until the toffee is set (about 1-2 hours).
- Lift the toffee out of the pan using the foil overhang and break into pieces.
