The batch I made on Christmas Eve to take to Christmas dinner was a hit… it came out absolutely PERFECT… I made a simple change to it because I didn’t realize I was out of my pure vanilla extract… I used some butter rum I had in my freezer… OMG!!! I will never make toffee with vanilla again…. This stuff was GONE so fast! My brother got a piece and after tasting it went and got a bowl and took about a 1/3 of it to keep for himself lol… I couldn’t believe how good this stuff was! I used Dark Chocolate Chips instead of regular ones also… I swear I found the recipe for a Skör candy bar!!!!

Louise, I absolutely LOVE your videos and I've made many of your recipes, and they all turn out just perfect! I've made the toffee now a couple of times. It's wonderful. I have a suggestion though. After the toffee is poured into the 9 X 13 pan and the chocolate chips are scattered on top, instead of using aluminum foil (which can be costly), I just use a large cookie sheet and place it on top. That way you save on using aluminum foil, and the cookie sheet doesn't even get dirty and doesn't need to be washed afterwards!

@Angela Ponder There are so many ways to make this delish toffee. They all sound sooo good. I use unsalted saltines as the bottom layer on a foil lined cookie sheet. Single layer unsalted saltines placed close together.. Pour toffee mixture over them, spread quickly. I pop it in the oven just for a few minutes until it bubbles..have to watch it closely so it doesn't burn. The oven method helps spread and thin out the mixture and get it to the edges of the cookie sheet and helps it get to the bottom / under the saltines. After removing from the oven, I immediately add chocolate chips and let it sit on the counter on a cooling rack, uncovered for maybe 5 minutes, then spread the chocolate chips with an offset spatula. This way it, makes more and the crunch from the unsalted saltines takes it up a notch.

This sounds very simple and my family lives heath bars. Thank you so much, I never dreamed it would be so easy to make good butter toffee.

The Karo is probably to prevent crystallization of the sugar. The temperature of the candy determines the texture, so if it is undercooked a bit, it will be a little chewy.

Your toffee (brickle) looks so delicious!!! Thanks for sharing. If I have a choice between cooking with gas or electric, I choose gas every time; sixty-six years of experience here. 1) Instant on/off (no boil overs) so you do not have to remove possibly a very heavy pot to a cooler area of the stove or counter. 2) cost less to use gas than electric however, it does cost a little more to purchase a gas counter cook top or stove and it has to be installed by a licensed plumber. 3) consistent cooking temperature; electric burners cool down and heat up constantly. 4) can still cook using gas even when electricity goes off (the electric light and clock will go off but you can still cook). 5) use the flame to get a blackened/caramalized peel on sweet peppers for your recipes. And 6} if you smoke, you can do what my grandmother used to do, light her cigarette off the gas flame !!! I would rather have a gas stove in general, for cooking, baking and 7) proofing my yeast breads. 8) You can also dry flowers for arrangements.......well, you get the idea. LOL !

I have been making a similar recipe for 50 years - since high school home ec class! The one point I would like to add is the attention given to the stove and pan used. You must use a heavy bottom pan and stoves are all so different so once the toffee boils keep the heat lower than higher to just keep that low bubbling. Be patient! The moisture in your home makes a difference too. I use unsalted butter because it’s better butter and add 1/4 t salt to each cube. I also only use raw sugar now - so much better than refined ! Yum

Thank you! I hope you love it! If you are using a stainless steel insert, start out with the heat on medium and then you can turn it up, if you need to, after the sugar and butter have melted.

Thanks for explaining that the darker you cook the sugar and butter, the harder the toffee will be. I like it chewy like you described and not super brittle.

I'm an experienced candy maker, but have never tried toffee which is one of my personal favorites. The method is similar to peanut brittle and I think I'll give it a whirl. Happy Holidays.

Do you have any ideas why toffee would separate? It seems to be a high altitude issue because over the years that I've made it, it always turned out fine when i was living in lower altitudes. I have lived in the mountains most of my life (off/on) and it's really hard to make at 6500 feet. Ideas, suggestions, thoughts? Also, does constant stirring risk it to crystalize? Thank you :)

@TheSaltedPepper4 жыл бұрын
There are several reasons that toffee separates and I just learned yesterday that altitude is one of them. Sudden temperature changes and also stirring too vigorously can also cause it. Crystallization can happen when stirring IF you are scraping the sides. I haven't experienced that with this recipe though. My only thoughts for making it at a high altitude is to start off with a low heat and gradually increase it. I have also heard that you don't cook it to as high of a temperature as you do at sea level. I would try only cooking it to 285F. Please let me know if you try any of these ideas and if they work!
@nancyfenity98174 жыл бұрын
I have no experience with high altitudes, but am sure that could create problems. Also, I try not to stir candy constantly once the sugar has dissolved and don't scrape the sides of the pan.
@Sunfleur19884 жыл бұрын
@@nancyfenity9817 It's weird, there are some recipes that say stir like crazy and others say don't touch it, especially the sides of the pot while cooking...I dunno.

OK so I made your recipe yesterday it's the first time that I ever made toffee candy the only thing I added was some chopped peanuts on top and some red and green sprinkles on top because I'm going to break it up into candy pieces and give it away for Christmas. It came out super easy at first I thought I was doing it wrong because it wasn't getting thick so I put your video back on while I was making it and I just had to tell myself to be patient and keep letting it cook longer and it finally thickened up and it did not burn which I was thankful for and it taste amazing! Thank you so much for this video. ❤️🎄🙏🏻

Louis, your an angel, a registered nurse who helped people, a wonderful cook who is helping people, why don't we have more people like you out there. I enjoy making your baked goods, it has become therapy for me, as a shut in not able to go out and raise cane, this is so relaxing and rewarding to see my family enjoy these items. I would ask if there are any of your recipes using sugar subs, being diabetic is kind of a bummer when it comes to making such great items, if you think about it could you forward the low or no sugar recipes? Thank you for every thing.

I make toffee every Christmas, but I do it on the stove and I’m like you, I watch for the color instead of using a thermometer. I also always put chopped nuts on mine, either almonds or pecans, whatever I have in the pantry. I usually have to make two batches since I make up goody baskets, including homemade cookies, Divinity, etc., to give as gifts to our neighbors and friends.
