Rick, buttery toffee with chocolate
This toffee is really easy and so delicious! In a large saucepan over medium heat, melt 4 sticks of salted butter. Once melted, add 2 cups of packed brown sugar and 1 cup of white sugar, and salt. Stir about once every 1-2 min, but not constantly (this will keep the butter incorporated at the end) and bring up to 300 degrees. As soon as it reaches 300, pour it into either a buttered or parchment paper lined medium cookie sheet (the parch. paper is easier to remove it from the pan but I've done it both ways). Sprinkle mini chocolate chips evenly over the top. They will melt in about 3-5 min and you just spread them smooth with a spatula. Sprinkle any nuts if you want them (or you can sprinkle them in the bottom of the pan before you pour the toffee in) then refrigerate/put outside to cool for about 1hr. To crack it, either drop it on the counter or take a knife and tap it with a hammer to break it up. The cooking part takes about 20 min. It is really good! It makes about 80 pieces of 1 inch candy. Enjoy!
