Easy English Toffee Recipe

This is English Toffee recipe is the best! It comes out perfectly every time and has just the right amount of crunch. Not too soft, and not so hard it breaks a tooth. This version is from my mother-in-law who has English Toffee making down to an art! My husband made up this batch, and I think it was gone within 24 hours. We couldn’t stop sneaking pieces of it. It tastes just like Almond Roca candy to me, which I love! I like to make this in either a 9×13 pan, or in the center of a cookie sheet. If you want to make enough English toffee to fill an entire cookie sheet, I would suggest doubling the recipe. This sized batch is perfect though because it doesn’t fill the entire cookie sheet. It makes a big circle of toffee in the center, which makes it much easier to break the toffee apart after it cools and hardens.
