Servings: 12 Servings
Ingredients
- 1 cup butter
- 1 cup sugar
- 3 tablespoons water
- 1 tablespoon light corn syrup
- ⅔ cup semisweet chocolate chips
- Holiday sprinkles
Instructions
- Line a 9 x 9 baking dish or a small baking sheet with aluminum foil, extending over the edges of the dish. Set aside.
- In a 2 quart saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Add sugar, water and corn syrup and stir constantly.
- Bring to a boil, reduce heat to medium low and continue stirring until temperature reaches 290°F.
- Once the mixture reaches 290 degrees, immediately pour into the prepared dish and spread out quickly with a spatula.
- Let candy sit for a minute or two and then sprinkle chocolate chips on top and let sit until slightly melted.
- Once melted, use a spatula to smooth over candy.
- Evenly sprinkle holiday sprinkles over candy.
- Chill in the fridge for about 20 minutes or until firm. Once firm, lift foil out of the baking dish and break into pieces.
Notes
- Work Quickly. Spread the toffee quickly while it's still warm. This makes it more even as it dries.
- Use a Candy Thermometer. Invest in a candy thermometer for this toffee candy recipe and many other boiled sugar recipes. It's the only way to truly know if your mixture is ready.
- Store Tips. Place the Christmas toffee bark in an airtight container and store it at room temperature for up to 2 weeks. Never refrigerate your toffee. The moisture in the fridge will make it soft.
