Easy For Bonfire Toffee

Instructions

1. In a heavy-bottomed saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add in the granulated sugar and corn syrup, stirring constantly until the mixture is smooth and well combined.

2. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Cook the toffee, stirring occasionally, until it reaches 300°F (hard crack stage) on a candy thermometer. This should take about 15-20 minutes.

3. Once the toffee reaches the desired temperature, remove it from the heat and quickly stir in the vanilla extract. Be careful as the mixture will be extremely hot.

4. Pour the hot toffee onto a parchment-lined baking sheet, spreading it into an even layer. Sprinkle the chopped nuts over the top of the toffee, gently pressing them into the surface.

5. In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the chocolate chips in 30-second intervals, stirring between each interval until smooth and melted.

6. Drizzle the melted chocolate over the toffee, using a spatula to spread it evenly. Sprinkle a pinch of sea salt over the chocolate while it's still warm to add a delicious contrast to the sweetness.

7. Allow the toffee to cool completely at room temperature or in the refrigerator until the chocolate is set and the toffee has hardened.

8. Once the toffee has set, break it into rustic pieces using a sharp knife or by hand. Serve the Bonfire Toffee on a platter or in individual treat bags for a fun and shareable dessert option.
