    Microwave Toffee


    Source of Recipe


    Internet

    List of Ingredients




    1 stick butter (no substitutions and make sure it's straight out of the refrigerator)
    1 cup granulated sugar
    1/4 cup water
    1/2 cup chopped almonds plus 1/4 cup finely chopped almonds
    1 cup milk chocolate chips, about


    Sprinkle the 1/2 cup chopped almonds on a greased cookie sheet; set aside.

    Combine sugar, butter and water in a large microwave bowl. Microwave on High for 8 to 9 minutes (do not mix) until light brown (the color of a Heath Bar). If it needs more time, do it in 20- to 30-second increments, and watch carefully as it can burn quickly.

    Pour the mixture on the prepared cookie sheet (do not scrape the bowl, it contains sugar crystals that can mar the consistency of the toffee). Immediately sprinkle the chocolate chips over the toffee. Let the chips melt, then spread smooth. Top with the finely chopped almonds.

    Pop in the freezer for a few minutes to harden the toffee. Break into bite-sized pieces.
