Rich buttery toffee, all smothered in chocolate and as crunchy as can be...it has to be the best candy recipe on the planet!

Ingredients

1/2 cup almonds (or pecans, finely chopped )
1 cup butter
1 1/3 cups brown sugar
2 tablespoons water
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
6 oz chocolate chips (melted)
2 teaspoons coconut oil (or butter)
almonds or pecans for garnish (optional)

Steps

Grease a 9x9 pan. Sprinkle nuts into the bottom of the pan.

Bring butter, brown sugar, water, and salt to a boil over medium heat. Let boil, stirring about 12 minutes or until the mixture reaches 295°F on a candy thermometer.

Remove from heat and stir in vanilla. Pour into prepared pan and cool 30 minutes.

Prepare melted chocolate per notes below. Spread melted chocolate over toffee and sprinkle with additional nuts if desired.

Let cool 1 hour at room temperature then break into bite sized pieces.
