Almond Toffee

There are very many different recipes for Toffee. Some recipes require a lot of ingredients. I use Sugar and Butter to make Toffee, but I always add Almonds. You can use other nuts such as Pecans, Walnuts OR Peanuts. I don’t want to make a huge amount, because this Toffee is high in calories and very addictive. It’s hard to stop eating it. If I made a lot, I would end up eating a lot.

Ingredient

Food ration :

4 to 6 Servings

60 g

Butter *cut into cubes

3/4 cup (160 g)

Caster Sugar

2 tablespoons (30 ml)

Water

1/2 cup

Roasted Almonds *coarsely chopped OR broken

Cooking instructions

* Step 1

Chop up Roasted Almonds on a cutting board, OR you can place them in a small tough bag and smack them using something hard. Roasted Almonds break easily.

* Step 2

Line a baking tray with baking paper. You will pour the hot Toffee over the baking paper later. This has to be prepared before you start cooking.

* Step 3

Place Butter, Sugar and Water in a small frying pan. I used 20cm non-stick frying pan. Heat over medium heat, stir to combine evenly.

* Step 4

Once the mixture is foaming up, do not stir, and you only shake the pan occasionally.

* Step 5

The mixture that is foaming up starts to change colour to light brown, and darker. You can lower the heat if you prefer.

* Step 6

Remove from the heat before it turns to the desired colour, quickly add the chopped Almonds, mix to combine, then pour the mixture over the prepared tray.

* Step 7

*Note: Toffee turns darker brown VERY quickly, and that will make the Toffee bitter. You need to work quickly.

* Step 8

Toffee hardens as it cools. I recommend to cut it into 4-5cm size pieces before it turns completely hard. Another method is making shallow cuts while it is still slightly soft. When it is hard, just break it along the cuts.
