Easy Toffee

I love making sweets that can be made on a whim because they only require a few minutes and staple ingredients.  I learned this toffee recipe in an elementary school cooking class and have been making it from memory ever since.  It doesn't get any easier!  




Preheat oven to 350 degrees.  Grease a cookie sheet and line with a sleeve of saltine crackers.  In a saucepan on medium, combine 1 stick of butter and 1 cup brown sugar.  Stir continuously.  When it comes to a boil, slowly pour mixture over crackers and spread with a spatula.  It doesn't have to be perfect.  That's why I love this recipe!  Bake 5 minutes.  Remove from oven and sprinkle with 1 bag milk chocolate chips and if you wish, a half cup of chopped nuts.  Allow to melt, smoothing the chocolate with a spatula.  Once it has completely set {you can refrigerate to speed the process}, break into pieces.


Love s'mores?  Substitue saltines for graham crackers and top with marshmallows.

Visiting from Tatertots and Jello. This looks amazing! and toffee is one of my all time favs. I have always been too afraid to try to make it though. Maybe I'll give it a shot? You have made me a hungry girl ;) Hope your weekend is fantastic.
