Source of Recipe


Adapted from Williams-Sonoma Lifestyles Series,After Dinner,by Kristine Kidd (Time-Life Books, 1998).


List of Ingredients




8 oz. white chocolate, finely chopped
2 tsp. freshly ground fine-grind coffee
1/2 cup chopped plain English toffee or English
toffee bits (not chocolate covered)
1/3 cup chopped chocolate-covered English
toffee


Recipe



Butter a baking sheet and line with waxed paper.

Place the white chocolate in the top pan of a double boiler or in a heatproof bowl. Place over but not touching hot (not simmering) water in the lower pan. Turn off the heat and let stand, without stirring, until the chocolate begins to melt. Then stir until just melted and smooth. Mix in the coffee and the chopped plain toffee. Pour onto the prepared baking sheet. Using a silicone or rubber spatula, spread to an even thickness of 1/4 inch. It should form a rectangle approximately 12 by 6 inches. Sprinkle immediately with the chocolate-covered toffee. Refrigerate, uncovered, until firm, about 1 hour.

Gently peel the candy from the waxed paper. Holding the candy with the waxed paper (to prevent fingerprints), break the chocolate into large, irregular pieces. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks. Makes about 1/2 lb. candy.
