Toffee


I have always been intimidated when it comes to making toffee, but this recipe is really simple and it turned out the first time I tried it...

Layer a 9x13 pan with 2 layers a foil and 1 layer of silvered almonds.

1 cup butter
1 cup sugar
1 tsp real vanilla
1/2 tsp salt

Combine above ingredients and cook in a heavy pan, on almost high heat. Stir constantly with a wooden spoon. When the mixture is the color of a brown paper bag, pour into prepared pan. Let cool.
Cover with dipping chocolate and chopped walnuts. ***You can also turn the toffee over & put chocolate & nuts on the other side.
Break into pieces and enjoy!
