The morning started off running to the store to pick up a few supplies. Then it was back to the kitchen to make a buttercrunch toffee with toasted almonds and dark chocolate. I found the recipe at joyofbaking.com. The consistency of the toffee came out great. The flavor OK. not as rich as it could be. I read that if you cook it on a lower temperature for a longer time it develops a deeper and richer flavor – I will have to try that next time, but all in all not bad.
After that I decided to make some chocolate taffy. It reminds me of a lighter more chocolaty Tootise Roll. I think this ones a keeper! The only slight issue is that some pieces seem to stick to the wax paper a bit, I think the way to resolve that is to cook it a few degrees higher the next time around.
That’s it for now.
