Almond Toffee Bites
Homemade English Toffee bites that are buttery, nutty, and rich, topped with milk chocolate and walnuts. Perfect for gifting!
Ingredients
Toffee Base
- 0.5 cup unsalted butter
- 0.5 cup margarine
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 0.25 teaspoon kosher salt
- 0.5 teaspoon vanilla extract
Toppings
- 1 cup unblanched whole almonds Roasted and roughly chopped
- 12 ounce milk chocolate chips Melted
- 1 cup finely ground walnuts
Instructions
Preparation Steps
- Arrange almonds in a single layer on a foil-lined 11x7 inch baking dish, or press into a silicone brownie bite pan.
- In a heavy saucepan, combine butter, margarine, sugar, salt, and vanilla extract. Cook over medium-high heat, stirring constantly until butter melts.
- Bring the mixture to a rolling boil. Continue boiling and stirring for an additional 5-7 minutes until the candy reaches an almond color (about 300 degrees F).
- Quickly pour the hot toffee mixture over the almonds. If using a brownie bite pan, use a small metal scoop to divide the toffee into each cavity.
- Cool completely (this may take up to 2 hours).
- Once the toffee is completely cooled and set, spread the melted milk chocolate evenly over the top surface. Sprinkle generously with ground walnuts.
- Allow the chocolate to set completely before breaking into pieces or popping out of the silicone mold. Store in an airtight container.
Notes
If the chocolate seems to slide off when cutting, wipe the top of the cooled toffee with a dry paper towel to remove excess butter before applying chocolate.
