Ingredients
1 cup unsalted butter (2 sticks)
1 cup granulated sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
1 cup chopped nuts (pecans or walnuts)
1 cup butterscotch chips (optional)
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 9×13-inch baking pan with foil and lightly grease it.
In a saucepan, melt butter over medium heat.
Stir in sugar and salt. Once it begins to boil, stop stirring and let it boil for 5 minutes, watching carefully.
Remove from heat and stir in vanilla extract.
Immediately pour the hot toffee mixture evenly into the prepared pan.
Sprinkle chocolate chips over the hot toffee. Let sit 2 minutes, then spread evenly.
Top with chopped nuts and optional butterscotch chips, pressing lightly to adhere.
Let cool at room temperature until set, then refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
Once firm, lift toffee from pan using foil and break into bite-size pieces.
Notes
Use a candy thermometer to ensure toffee reaches 300°F (hard crack stage).
Toast the nuts before adding for enhanced flavor and crunch.
Store in an airtight container at room temperature or in the fridge for longer shelf life.
