Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup unsalted butter
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 3 cups graham cracker squares, broken into pieces
- 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup chopped pecans (optional)
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and arrange the graham cracker pieces in a single layer to cover the surface.
- In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Stir in the sugar and salt, then bring the mixture to a gentle boil.
- Let the mixture boil for 3 to 5 minutes without stirring until it turns a rich caramel color.
- Immediately pour the hot toffee evenly over the graham crackers, spreading it if needed to cover all pieces.
- Bake in the oven for 8 to 10 minutes, until the toffee is bubbly and set.
- Remove the baking sheet from the oven and sprinkle the chocolate chips evenly over the hot toffee.
- Let the chocolate sit for 2 to 3 minutes to melt, then spread it evenly with a spatula.
- Sprinkle the chopped pecans over the melted chocolate if you are using them.
- Allow the toffee to cool completely at room temperature or refrigerate until firm.
- Break the cooled toffee into pieces and serve.
Notes
- Use high-quality butter and chocolate for the best flavor.
- Store leftover toffee in an airtight container to maintain crispness.
