Cook Time:
I had originally made a zaar recipe, but then realized I had made a HUGE mistake and it turned out FANTASTIC. The toffee has the best soft crunch. I made it again correctly and it was not as good, so with the mistake I think I can call it my own now??
Directions:
1
In heavy saucepan, combine butter, sugar, water, and salt.
2
Cook to hard-crack stage (300°F) stirring constantly and watching carefully.
3
Immediately pour into foil lined and greased 13"x9" pan.
4
Melt chips in a bowl in the microwave in increments of 30-15 seconds, stirring well in between until chips pretty much melted.
5
Spatula the chocolate onto the toffee and spread evenly.
6
Sprinkle the nuts.
7
To be able to break in nice squares if you'd like, after the toffee has set a little while (15-20 min or so) use a pizza cutter to score the candy.
8
Cool until hard.
