Toffee is made by caramelizing sugar with butter until it reaches the hard crack stage.
I'm making mine a little bit different today. I started by laying out some saltine crackers on a sheet pan:
and then I made my caramel
To check if the caramel is ready, you can do a cold water test. You basically put cold water in a bowl and then if you drop a little bit of the syrup, they should turn into hard brittle threads.
when the caramel was ready, i poured it over the crackers and quickly spread them out.
And then the chocolate. it melts as the caramel is still hot, so it's easy to spread out evenly.
I left it out on my rack to cool completely, and then I broke them into pieces for everyone to enjoy.
My English Toffee!!
