BETTER THAN ANYTHING TOFFEE RECIPE

Spray a 9-inch sq. baking dish with cooking spray and line with parchment paper.
Unfold the chopped pecans in a single layer on prime of the parchment.
Add butter, sugar, and salt to a heavy-bottomed 3-quart pot
Deliver to a boil over medium-low warmth, stirring often to dissolve the sugar.
As soon as the sweet is boiling, stir often, slowly and evenly, till the sweet has reached 290F to 300F, or “laborious crack” on a sweet thermometer.
As soon as the sweet has reached 290F-300F, take away from warmth and gently stir within the vanilla extract.
Fastidiously pour the combination over the chopped pecans.
Let the sweet sit for a couple of minutes, undisturbed, earlier than sprinkling the chocolate chips excessive.
Cowl the baking dish with foil and let sit for five minutes or till the chocolate has softened.
Take away the foil and gently unfold the softened chocolate into an excellent layer. An offset spatula works finest for this.
Place the sweet within the fridge and let cool fully. Give it no less than 2 hours.
Elevate the parchment out of the baking dish and place the toffee on a slicing board or strong floor.
Use a knife to softly break it into smaller items.
Retailer in an hermetic container in a cool place.
