Tue Nov 28 22:42:11 -0800 2006 54027 MsMonkey 1 2054003 This is the best toffee recipe I've found: http://www.recipezaar.com/26038 Tue Nov 28 23:31:00 -0800 2006 2053886 27327 MsMaryMc 1 2054733 This is one I have used for 15+ years. Toffee: 1 stick butter 1 stick margarine 1 cup sugar 1 cup sliced almond Put the butter and margarine in a heavy bottom saucepan (copper preferred) over medium heat. When the butter and margarine are half way melted, add the sugar, stir continuously. When the mixture foam up, add the almond. Continue to stir and cook until hard crack stage (~300 degrees). Pour the mixture onto a foil lined sheet pan and allow to cool. You can coat one or both sides with melted chocolate of your choice. You may also add toasted, chopped pecan or walnut on top. If you want to add nuts, do so as soon as you spread the chocolate on the toffee so they'll stick. Another option (what I did this year) is to just drizzle chocolate on top.
