Awesome English Toffee

• 1 cup white sugar
• 1 cup dark brown sugar, packed
• 2 tablespoons water
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 lb real unsalted butter
• 1 12 cups chocolate chips
• 1 12 cups finely chopped pecans

1. Sprinkle nuts onto 11X17 cookie sheet (I usually spray the cookie sheet with non-stick spray before I start - just in case).
2. Spread your chocolate evenly over the nuts and set the pan aside.
3. Mix remaining ingredients in an iron skillet and cook on high to 300F, about 8-10 minutes or until it forms a brittle ball when dropped into cold water, and stir constantly.
4. Quickly pour mixture evenly over the chocolate.
5. Let stand 5 minutes so chocolate has a chance to melt before placing in fridge.
6. leave refrigerated until the chocolate is completely cooled - at least 2.5 - 3 hours.
7. Break into pieces and store in airtight container.
8. Will last several weeks when kept in the freezer.
