WebDec 3, 2020 · 3) Moderate the heat carefully. When the butter and sugar are first added to the pan, cook on medium-low until the butter is melted. …

1. Line a half sheet pan or 9X13-inch pan (for thicker toffee) with parchment paper - no need to butter or grease the parchment. Sprinkle chopped nuts in an even layer over the parchment. Set aside. (I like nuts on the bottom of the toffee, but you can skip this step and sprinkle nuts on top of the toffee after the chocolate melts.)
2. In a heavy-bottom 4-quart saucepan on medium-low heat, add the butter, sugar and salt. Cook, stirring, until the butter is melted. Clip a candy thermometer to the side of the pot, if using.
3. Increase heat to medium, and bring the mixture to a steady boil. Stir only occasionally (not constantly) and avoid scraping down the sides of the pan. Stirring too quickly or too often can cause the toffee to separate. Moderate the heat as needed - turn it down if the toffee is boiling or cooking too fast so it doesn't burn.
4. Cook until the toffee registers 285-290 degrees on an instant-read or candy thermometer and is deep amber brown in color, about 20-25 minutes.
