How to make toffee bits // HonestlyYUM

Ingredients:

  • 4 tablespoons butter, cut into pieces
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon water
  • 1/8 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions:

  • Mix together water, butter, granulated sugar and brown sugar in a saucepan over medium heat, stirring as little as possible.
  • Using a candy thermometer to gauge the temperature, cook until the mixture reaches 300°F.
  • Remove the pan from heat and immediate stir in the baking soda and vanilla. Mix until just combined (do not over-stir). Then, immediately pour the hot toffee mixture onto a baking sheet covered in parchment paper.
  • Let cool completely. If your kitchen is warm, you may need to let cool in the refrigerator.
  • Once hardened, chop the toffee to desired size and sprinkle bits on ice cream, milkshakes, and more!
