TRADITIONAL ENGLISH TOFFEE

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients. Preheat oven to 325 F.
• Toast the nuts by spreading them on a cookie sheet and placing them in the preheated oven for approximately 10 minutes. Stir them every 3 to 4 minutes, and remove them once they darken and become fragrant. Let the nuts cool to room temperature.
• Chop the toasted nuts finely with a knife or food processor .
• Prepare a 12x16 inch cookie sheet by lining it with aluminum foil and spraying it with nonstick cooking spray.
• Combine the butter, sugar, water, corn syrup, and salt in a large heavy saucepan over medium heat. Stir constantly to dissolve the sugar and melt the butter. Insert a candy thermometer and bring the candy to a boil, periodically brushing down the sides with a wet pastry brush to prevent crystallization.
• Continue to cook the candy, stirring frequently, until it reaches 300 F, and begins to caramelize-about 20 to 30 minutes. If the candy appears to separate (with a layer of melted butter on top) stir vigorously to make it come back together again. Watch the candy as it approaches 300 F since it cooks quickly and can scorch at high temperatures.
• Once the candy reaches 300 F, remove from heat and pour it onto the prepared baking sheet. Use a spatula or spoon to spread the candy to an even thickness. Allow the toffee to begin to set, then spray a knife with nonstick cooking spray and score the toffee into small squares or rectangles. Allow the toffee to cool completely.
• Once the toffee is cool, break it apart on the scored lines into small squares. The toffee can be left plain, or dipped in chocolate.
• To dip the toffee in chocolate, begin by melting the chocolate . Place it in a microwave-safe bowl and microwave it in one-minute increments, stirring after every minute to prevent overheating.
• Dip each piece of toffee in the chocolate, either submerging it completely or dipping it halfway in, according to your preference. Place dipped toffee pieces on a baking sheet lined with aluminum foil. While the chocolate is still wet, sprinkle the top generously with chopped nuts. Repeat with remaining toffee, chocolate, and nuts.
• Place the toffee in the refrigerator to set the chocolate, about 20 minutes. Once set, toffee can be served immediately.
