This toffee is incredible. I first tried this recipe at my sister-in-law's and have loved the results ever since. I made a very small batch for our family movie night this evening. It took a grand total of 10 minutes! Thanks for posting!

I didn't use almonds, and I didn't cook this to the full temperature, instead I cooked it to just beyond the hard ball stage, stirred it while it cooled for a couple minutes, then poured it all over fresh air-popped popcorn, then stirred it around the best I could. It's delicious! It maybe wasn't as sweet as chocolate covered toffee, but was MUCH more filling. Great recipe!

hmmmm. . . i don't know about this recipe. for one, half of the butter separated from the sugar. i had to pour it off at the end! the toffee itself tastes slightly bitter or burnt, although that could be my fault, and with the chocolate it's not as noticable. the toffee has a strange texture that dissolves while chewing. maybe it would be helpful if the recipe was more specific about stirring? i wish toffee was this easy to make!

This is an absolutely wonderful recipe! I made a different recipe first made with brown sugar; it turned out kind of grainy and tasted a little burned. This recipe was smooth, creamy ,exactly how I expected toffee to taste. It really tastes like a Heath Bar! Thanks much!

I made this exactly according to the recipe. It turned out wonderfully! I think that I'll leave the almonds out or reduce the amount next time though, as I think they masked the deliciously buttery taste of the toffee. Thanks FunkySeaMonkey for a wonderful recipe!

I used grated hershey milk chocholate bar instead of semisweet chips (grating it in my cuisinart). I also put chocholate/nuts on both sides. If you want to do both sides, put a little butter on the tin foil baking sheet before pouring the mixture on to it. After you've done one side, place another sheet of tin foil over it and flip it over. Do the other side while it is still warm. This was very good.

This was SOOO good! I did what one of the people down below said to do and coated both sides with the chocolate and nuts. I also did what the author of the recipe does and used pecans... not because I like them better.. it was just the only nut in the house... but anyways. The taste was wonderful the crunch was perfect. I added a little bit of the nuts into the toffee.. it tasted just like See's candy... if not better! THANKS SO MUCH FOR THIS RECIPE! VERY EASY AND VERY VERY VERY GOOD!!!
