    Christmas: Chocolate-Glazed Toffee

    Source of Recipe


    From "Betty Crocker Christmas Cookbook"


    List of Ingredients


    • 1 cup granulated sugar
    • 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter
    • 1/4 cup water
    • 1/2 cup semisweet chocolate chips (optional)
    • 1/2 cup finely chopped pecans (optional)


    Instructions


    1. Have a large, ungreased cookie sheet ready.

    2. In a large pot on high heat, bring the sugar, butter and water to a boil, stirring constantly. Reduce heat to medium and cook 10 minutes, stirring constantly, until the mixture reaches 300° on a candy thermometer.

    3. Immediately pour the toffee onto the ungreased cookie sheet and spread to 1/4-inch thickness. If using chocolate, sprinkle the toffee with the chocolate chips; let stand for 1 minute, then spread the chocolate evenly over the toffee. Sprinkle with pecans. Let the toffee set for 1 hour, or until firm. Break the toffee into pieces and store in an airtight container.

      Makes about 3 dozen candies.
