Toffee recipe

Classic Toffee Ingredients: 1 cup unsalted butter 1 cup granulated sugar ¼ teaspoon salt 1 teaspoon vanilla extract 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips ½ cup chopped nuts (optional, such as almonds or pecans) Instructions: Prepare the Pan: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat. Melt the Butter: In a heavy-bottomed saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add Sugar and Salt: Stir in the sugar and salt. Continue to cook, stirring constantly, until the mixture reaches 300°F (149°C) on a candy thermometer (hard crack stage). This will take about 10-15 minutes. Add Vanilla: Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract. Pour the Toffee: Pour the hot mixture onto the prepared baking sheet and spread it out evenly. Add Chocolate: Sprinkle the chocolate chips over the hot toffee. Let them sit for a minute to melt, then spread the chocolate evenly over the toffee. Add Nuts: Sprinkle the chopped nuts over the melted chocolate, if using. Cool and Break: Let the toffee cool completely at room temperature or in the refrigerator. Once hardened, break it into pieces. Enjoy your homemade toffee
