Recipe # 2 - ****BONUS RECIPE (that has nothing to do with peanut butter, but I felt like giving it out**********
My super secret, super easy Toffee recipe….
1 box (1 pound) of butter (unsalted is best)
2 cups granulated sugar
1 teaspoon of salt.
Chocolate
Chopped almonds
Throw everything in a heavy duty saucepan and cook over medium heat, Stirring constantly. Butter will separate and it will look like it’s not working. Keep stirring and have faith. Stir until the mixture turns the color of peanut butter. This entire process takes about 15-20 minutes I believe. HINT- Have a jar on hand for reference, as you will question yourself.
Turn out molten mixture on to a rimmed cookie sheet (AKA jelly roll pan) that is lined with either a silpat or parchment.
You now have two choices. The easy method is to immediately sprinkle the toffee with chocolate chips (takes just over a bag) or chopped chocolate. The chocolate will melt on contact. Use a spatula to spread the chocolate and then sprinkle with chopped almonds.
Once chocolate has set (you may use freezer to speed this process) break into pieces and enjoy.
The other method would be to wait a few minutes until the toffee is partially set up. Then take a knife and score the toffee. When it is cool, break it into pieces and hand dip it into melted chocolate, sprinkle both sides with almonds. – This is the way I do it, and it’s FABULOUS!
