How to Make Toffee Butter Crunch

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine the butter, brown sugar, and corn syrup. Stir constantly until the butter is melted and the sugar is dissolved.
Bring the mixture to a boil, stirring frequently. Continue to boil, without stirring, until the mixture reaches 300°F (150°C) on a candy thermometer (firm-ball stage).
Remove from heat and immediately stir in the vanilla extract and salt.
Quickly pour the toffee mixture onto the prepared baking sheet and spread it evenly to about 1/4 inch thickness.
Sprinkle the chopped pecans evenly over the toffee.
Let the toffee cool completely at room temperature. Once cooled, break it into pieces.
Store in an airtight container at room temperature.
