Potato Chip-Chocolate Toffee
- 2 sticks unsalted butter, plus more for the baking sheet
- 5 cups thick-cut potato chips
- 1 cup sugar
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar or white vinegar
- 5 ounces bittersweet or semisweet chocolate, finely chopped
- Line a baking sheet with foil and butter the foil.
- Set 1 cup potato chips aside; break the remaining 4 cups chips in half if they're large.
- Combine the butter, sugar, vanilla and vinegar in a saucepan over medium-high heat and cook, stirring occasionally, until the mixture is light amber and a candy thermometer registers 320 degrees F, about 10 minutes.
- Remove from the heat and stir in the 4 cups chips, then immediately pour onto the baking sheet and spread in a thin layer.
- Gently press the reserved 1 cup chips on top of the toffee and let cool.
- Put about three-quarters of the chocolate in a microwave-safe glass bowl and microwave 30 seconds.
- Stir, then continue to microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring between each, until melted.
- Add the remaining chocolate and stir until smooth, about 4 minutes.
- Drizzle the chocolate over the toffee.
- Set aside to harden, about 20 minutes.
- Break the toffee into pieces.
