THE EASIEST TOFFEE
Note: I’ve made this toffee with and without a candy thermometer and they have both turned out great. The toffee is supposed to cook to 300 degrees, which is helpful to see on the thermometer, but if you don’t have one, you can eyeball it. I accidentally overcooked this one to 385 degrees and it was still delicious!
If you don’t have a candy thermometer, you’ll know the toffee is done cooking when it resembles the shade of peanut butter.
INGREDIENTS
DIRECTIONS
Using a deep saucepan, add the corn syrup and water over medium high heat until boiling.
Boil for about 5 minutes.
Add the butter and continue cooking until temperature reaches 285-300 degrees or turns the color of creamy peanut butter. It takes about 20-30 minutes to reach this point.

Christmas Treats
I also ordered some pre-made Christmas treats to have at our Favorite Things party, the Peppermint Bark is so yummy. I also scored on the Starbucks Mugs & Hot Cocoa Set which were only $5 for both the full-sized mug and hot cocoa. Those make great little gifts for teachers too.
For our mail/package delivery folks, I ordered this candy bar set (& this one) of full-sized candy bars since that’s what they seemed to like best in years’ past.
I usually make a homemade coffee cake on Christmas morning, but it’s pretty time intensive, so I’m trying this Cinnamon Swirl Crumb Cake. It’s by Krusteaz, which is the brand of pancakes we love.
Also, Jordan loves these Frosted Sugar Cookies and we can put them in these Treat Bags to give to her classmates. #easypeasy
I’ve never had good luck making my own sugar cookies, so we buy this Sugar Cookie Mix & Icing and it’s so much easier! Tip: put the shaped cookies in the fridge to firm up before baking. It helps them spread less.

Thank you for the recipe and the step by step instructions with pictures. Love that!! I will be trying it out this weekend for neighbors gifts. What a fantastic idea!
YUMMY!!!
At what point do you add the sugar?
This is my question too! Trying the recipe right now, and hoping I guessed correctly… 🙂
Haha, I added it with the butter- It turned out delicious!
I have to tell you I was a little nervous making this but it was so easy and so delicious!
Thanks for the recipe. Can’t wait for family to try it
My daughter in law always buys toffee at The Nutcracker Market and I think this is just as good… maybe better!
I think so too- only a few ingredients! Did you use a candy thermometer?
