Best Toffee Ever

Ingredients

• unsalted butter (2 cups)
• white sugar (2 cups)
• salt (0.25 teaspoon)
• semisweet chocolate chips (2 cups)
• finely chopped almonds (1 cup)

Instructions

1. Gather all ingredients.
2. Combine butter, sugar, and salt in a large, heavy-bottomed saucepan over medium heat.
3. Stir constantly in one direction until butter is melted, about 5 minutes.
4. Meanwhile, line a 9x13-inch baking dish with a sheet of parchment paper, letting it overhang two sides of the dish.
5. Once the butter has melted, stop stirring and bring the mixture to a boil. Once boiling, cook, stirring only 2 to 3 times, until it turns a dark amber color and the temperature reaches 285 degrees F (137 degrees C) on a candy thermometer, 20 to 30 minutes.
6. Immediately pour toffee into the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle chocolate chips on top and let sit until they soften, 1 to 2 minutes.
7. Use a spatula to spread softened chocolate into a thin, even layer.
8. Sprinkle nuts over the chocolate and press down slightly; wearing a plastic bag over your hand will minimize the mess.
9. Place toffee in the refrigerator until set, about 1 hour. Lift hardened toffee out of the baking dish with the parchment paper.
10. Break into pieces and store in an airtight container.
