1 1/2 cup Walnuts, chopped
1 cup Brown Sugar, firmly packed
10 Tbs. Butter (No substitutions)
3/4 cup Chocolate Chips
Instructions:
Sprinkle walnuts in the bottom of a 9-inch round cake or pie tin.
Combine sugar and
butter in a 1 1/2 quart saucepan. Cook and stir over medium heat until
attaining a 290-F
degree temperate on a candy thermometer. Make sure to stir your toffee
constantly while
melting the brown sugar and butter.
Remove the melted toffee from the heat source and cool slightly for
about 5 minutes.
Pour the mixture over the top of the walnuts in the round pan and
spread out in an even
layer. Immediately sprinkle the top with the chocolate chips. Let them
melt from the heat
of the toffee, then gently spread the melted chocolate over the top of
the hardening candy.
If desired, sprinkle a few more chopped or ground walnuts on top of the
chocolate while
it's still soft and warm. Cool at room temperature until hard, at least
2 hours, then break
into pieces and store in an airtight container.
