English Toffee Recipe

RE: English Toffee Recipe Post By Tammy (Guest Post) (09/06/2007) Thank-you Diana, that is pretty close I think. But just wondering, no sugar in it? And does it go by a different name? RE: English Toffee Recipe Post By Diana from Indiana (Guest Post) (09/06/2007) I think I have the recipe you need. 2 cups graham crackers, crushed 1 stick butter Mix and place 2/3 in 9x13 pan For the filling: 2 squares Baker's chocolate, melted and slightly cooled 2 sticks butter Beat with mixer and then add 2 eggs, 1/2 tsp vanilla & 1/2 cup dry milk. Beat for about 5 minutes. Pour into pan and top with remaining graham crackers. RE: English Toffee Recipe Post By Paula Nugent (Guest Post) (03/25/2007) HMM, you use a mixture of Imperial measurements and Metric. what is 1/2 lb? is that pound? Could you let us know what that is in Metric? thanks. Beats me why the U.S.A doesn't convert to metric like the rest of the world. Editor's Note: Yes, that is a half a pound. It would be 226 grams. We've been working on online conversion tables but so far haven't finished them. As for why? Who knows? RE: English Toffee Recipe Post By Tammy (Guest Post) (11/01/2006) These recipes all sound very good but what I am looking for was a dessert, almost had a mousse-like consistency. Sort of truffle tasting if that makes sense, was cut into slices and served cold. RE: English Toffee Recipe Post by SweetCali40 (111) | (11/01/2006) Profile | Contact Is the recipe from a Pillsbury Cook Off? If so I think this is it. Only thing.. this one uses nuts on top. If not I'll keep looking for you as I have numerous cookbooks to page through :) ENGLISH TOFFEE BARS Ingredients : 15 graham crackers (2 1/2" x 2 1/2") 1 c. firmly packed brown sugar 1 c. butter (do not substitute) 1 (6 oz.) pkg. chocolate chips (I use Nestle's milk chocolate) 1/4 c. chopped nuts (do not omit) Preparation : In a foil-lined 13"x9" cake pan (grease the foil with butter), arrange the graham crackers. Entire bottom of pan must be covered with graham crackers, you might have to break to make an even fit. In medium saucepan, combine the brown sugar and butter and bring to a boil. Remove from heat, pour over graham crackers. Bake in 400 degree oven for 5 minutes. Remove and immediately sprinkle with chocolate chips and as soon as the chips are soft, spread over the top of the cracker crust. Sprinkle with nuts. Chill at least 30 minutes or until chocolate is set. Break into pieces of all shapes and sizes (like English toffee candy). Store in refrigerator. These freeze nicely. Yield: at least 24 bits and pieces. RE: English Toffee Recipe Post By Tammy (Guest Post) (10/31/2006) No, the one from the link sounds good but that isnt it. This one had Baker`s chocolate in it I am almost sure, it had a very creamy consistency, I do remember you put in the fridge to set it up. I also dont remember nuts being in it, so really not sure why they called it English Toffee. For the "crunch" I think there was just the crumbled up graym cracker crust mix on the top.

Just made it again and it is fantastic! I also add in chocolate chips when it is poured out on the sheet and setting up well. Just be careful about how long you cook it. Make sure that you stir it continuously, but not too fast either! Good Luck. 2 c. brown sugar 1/2 lb. butter 3/4 c. golden syrup 1 300 ml tin Eagle Brand Sweetened Condensed Milk Bring to boil in heavy pot (MEDIUM Heat).  Boil hard, stirring constantly until toffee threads in cold water (about 20 minutes).  Pour onto buttered baking sheet.  Cool.  turn sheet upside down and break into pieces.  Nuts may be added to pan before toffee is poured.
