Preparation Steps

  • In a medium saucepan, combine the granulated sugar and water. Stir until the sugar is dissolved.
  • Add the butter to the saucepan and melt it over medium heat, stirring occasionally. Bring the mixture to a boil.
  • Cook, stirring constantly, until the mixture reaches a deep amber color, about 8-10 minutes. Be careful not to burn it.
  • Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract and salt. The mixture will bubble up vigorously.
  • Pour the toffee mixture onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or a silicone mat. Spread it thinly.
  • Let the toffee cool completely until hardened, then break it into small pieces.

Notes

Store toffee bits in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 weeks.
