Time 1h20m

Yield 32

Number Of Ingredients 5

Ingredients

2 cups butter
2 cups white sugar
¼ teaspoon salt
2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
1 cup finely chopped almonds

Steps:

In a large heavy bottomed saucepan, combine the butter, sugar and salt. Cook over medium heat, stirring until the butter is melted. Allow to come to a boil, and cook until the mixture becomes a dark amber color, and the temperature has reached 285 degrees F (137 degrees C). Stir occasionally.
While the toffee is cooking, cover a large baking sheet with aluminum foil or parchment paper.
As soon as the toffee reaches the proper temperature, pour it out onto the prepared baking sheet. Sprinkle the chocolate over the top, and let it set for a minute or two to soften. Spread the chocolate into a thin even layer once it is melted. Sprinkle the nuts over the chocolate, and press in slightly. Putting a plastic bag over your hand will minimize the mess.
Place the toffee in the refrigerator to chill until set. Break into pieces, and store in an airtight container.

Tips:

Always use fresh peanuts for the best flavor and texture.
Be careful not to overcook the peanuts, as they can quickly burn.
If you don't have a candy thermometer, you can test the toffee by dropping a small amount into a bowl of cold water. If the toffee forms a hard ball, it is ready.
You can add other ingredients to the toffee peanuts, such as chocolate chips, nuts, or dried fruit.
Store the toffee peanuts in an airtight container in a cool, dry place.

Conclusion:

Toffee peanuts are a delicious and easy-to-make snack that is perfect for any occasion. They are also a great gift for friends and family. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a delicious batch of toffee peanuts that will be enjoyed by everyone.
