Number Of Ingredients 8

1 1/4 teaspoons cayenne pepper
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1 teaspoon mustard powder
1/2 cup sugar
Kosher salt
1 large egg white
4 cups mixed roasted salted nuts

BEST TOFFEE EVER - SUPER EASY



Best Toffee Ever - Super Easy image

Chocolate and almonds top off a rich buttery toffee. A simple recipe that you could easily remember and whip up any time. I always get compliments and requests for more. Use any type of nut that you like in place of the almonds.

Provided by FUNKYSEAMONKEY

Categories     Desserts     Candy Recipes     Toffee Recipes

Time 1h20m

Yield 32

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 cups butter
2 cups white sugar
¼ teaspoon salt
2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
1 cup finely chopped almonds

Steps:

  • In a large heavy bottomed saucepan, combine the butter, sugar and salt. Cook over medium heat, stirring until the butter is melted. Allow to come to a boil, and cook until the mixture becomes a dark amber color, and the temperature has reached 285 degrees F (137 degrees C). Stir occasionally.
  • While the toffee is cooking, cover a large baking sheet with aluminum foil or parchment paper.
  • As soon as the toffee reaches the proper temperature, pour it out onto the prepared baking sheet. Sprinkle the chocolate over the top, and let it set for a minute or two to soften. Spread the chocolate into a thin even layer once it is melted. Sprinkle the nuts over the chocolate, and press in slightly. Putting a plastic bag over your hand will minimize the mess.
  • Place the toffee in the refrigerator to chill until set. Break into pieces, and store in an airtight container.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Ingredients     Nuts & Seeds     Almonds

Time 40m

Yield Makes about 5 1/2 cups

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 cups toasted whole-wheat cereal squares (such as Chex)
3/4 cup pretzel sticks
1 cup whole raw almonds
1 cup roasted unsalted peanuts
1/3 cup toffee bits
3/4 stick unsalted butter
5 sprigs thyme
1 tablespoon packed dark-brown sugar
1 tablespoon dry mustard
1/2 teaspoon coarse salt

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees. In a large bowl, combine cereal, pretzels, almonds, peanuts, and toffee.
  • Melt butter in a small saucepan over medium-high heat, stirring until golden brown, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in thyme. (Butter will splatter.) Stir in brown sugar, mustard, and salt. Add to cereal mixture and toss until evenly coated. Spread in an even layer on a rimmed baking sheet.
  • Bake, stirring halfway through, until nuts are toasted and toffee begins to melt, about 15 minutes. Let cool and discard thyme.

Tips:

- Always use a candy thermometer to ensure the toffee reaches the correct temperature. - Use a heavy-bottomed saucepan to prevent the toffee from burning. - Stir the toffee continuously to prevent it from sticking to the pan. - Add the nuts and spices just before pouring the toffee onto the prepared pan. - Allow the toffee to cool completely before cutting it into pieces. - Store the toffee in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 weeks.
