Dark Chocolate Hazelnut Toffee
- 1 cup Roasted Unsalted Hazelnuts
- 1 cup Butter
- 1 cup Granulated Sugar
- 1/4 teaspoons Salt
- 1 Tablespoon Hazelnut Liqueur
- 1-1/2 cup Dark Chocolate Chips
- 1/2 cups Chopped Or Ground Walnuts
- 1. Line a baking sheet with foil or a Silpat, sprinkle the hazelnuts in a single layer over the baking sheet to cover an area of approximately 9 X 12; set aside.
- 2. In a heavy saucepan or copper pan combine butter, sugar and salt. Cook over high heat stirring constantly until the candy reaches 300 degrees F (hard crack stage) - this step takes between 5 - 7 minutes. Remove from heat, stir in hazelnut liqueur, and quickly pour candy over the hazelnuts; allow to cool completely.
- 3. Melt chocolate in the microwave oven in intervals of 40 seconds at 50% power and stirring in between until chocolate is soft enough to spread. Spread chocolate mixture over cooled toffee and sprinkle with your favorite ground nut. Allow chocolate to cool completely before breaking toffee into bite-size pieces.
