This is the exact recipe how my 96 year old Aunt ( R.I.P.) used to to make. The only difference was she put nuts on the top. I have to tell you, she never timed her cooking process. I asked her how long do you cook it. She said it was done when you see the first puff of smoke, then immediately take it off the burner. This never fails. Every time I make it I think of her and miss her.❤

This is the 1st time I've come across your videos & I love it! I've made my own toffee before, (using my own recipe), and I have a suggestion for you - just before you pour the toffee on the cookie sheet, turn the fire off & quickly stir in 1 cup of chopped pecans. Then proceed as usual. It'll make a huge, and delicious, difference!

I thought about that but didn't know if it would mess it up, thank you!

Or, you could sprinkle the pecans (or anything else: pretzels, crackers, nuts, etc,) evenly on the baking sheet and pour the toffee over it!

That is the way I make my toffee. One batch I make with chopped pecans and one with almonds. Our family loves chopped nuts and I use dark chocolate. This is a very versatile Recipe.

I just love him using the pennies to show what color you need.

just watched this for the first time in December 2023! Looks so easy and looks so delicious!!

Another surefire gauge for toffee doneness is an ordinary brown paper grocery bag. Keep it nearby - but not too near the heat - and when the candy has cooked to the point that it’s the same color as the bag, it’s done and ready to pour out. Works every time!

My recipe calls for brown sugar but never gets crunchy, I'm using yours next time. Thanks

@tracyosborne6963: Brown sugar tends to have MORE moisture in it due to the molasses! Perhaps, that may be one of the reasons why the TOFFEE never becomes CRUNCHY; however, when baking cookies and you DESIRE moisture, i.e. chewiness...BROWN SUGAR or a combination of granulated (white sugar) and Brown Sugar (molasses) is IDEAL! ;-D Go with this all WHITE SUGAR recipe it is wonderful! 😀 *P.S. Sometimes, I use "infused" vanilla white (granulated) sugar...the vanilla beans in the sugar brings an even greater FLAVOR profile! ;-D Blessings to you & yours!

Thank you Tom. I'm making this tomorrow for all the grandkids who are here for Christmas. Thank you Melissa for posting these recipes.

Thanks for showing us how to make such a wonderful treat! Do you also make soft caramels? Your videos and instructions take the guess work out + removes the fear of messing up! Thank you so much for the easy to follow videos from your table to ours. Have a blessed Labor Day weekend.

I thought I loved watching you both before, but then butter toffee happened and I’ve just committed myself to yet another dessert to prepare before Sunday😊You both are great and seem to have the same relationship as my husband and myself. Thank you for sharing such yummy recipes with us all. Merry Christmas to you and yours🎄

This is so beautiful. Not just the delightful recipe, but the shared cooking experience. The safe feeling that is created by the sound of your voice. It's truly lovely.

You’re welcome! We love how easy it is, too! Merry Christmas!

My mother always used an iron skillet because it distributes and holds the heat. The trickiest thing about this candy is knowing when it is browned enough, not too much and not enough. But with practice, I found I could get it just right. My mother always used chocolate chips and sprinkled crushed almonds over the chocolate. My FAVORITE candy!! Yum!! We only make this for Christmas. It’s such a treat. Thanks for sharing this video. It brings back childhood memories.

I… have watched this or listened to this video while doing house work at least a dozen times a day. It’s just so joyful, you are both so lovely. I’m going to watch it again real soon. Bye from Sydney Australia 😊

Love the way you break it! Nifty trick.

Thank you for sharing this recipe with us ❤ just subbed 😊 God bless you always 🥰☺️🥰☺️🥰☺️🙏

I just LOVE you guys! Hearing you talk about the memories tied to recipes and food makes me feel like you are part of my family memories. So love all you share. Thanks Tom and Melissa👍🏻. I know what you were meaning when you said five thumbs up. I don’t watch videos to make ugly comments. Keep it up💕. Can’t wait for the next one.

Thank you for that encouragement. We really do appreciate the nice comments. We have over 100 videos on our channel posted now. We hope you can enjoy a bunch of them. Thank you again for watching.

My mom would always make this recipe every Christmas. While the chocolate was still warm, she would sprinkle chopped walnuts or pecans on top. Yummmmmm😍

Made it today for the first time Tom, the only change I had to make was I used dark chocolate, as we did not have milk chocolate in house…it is still cooling, so I’m not sure what it will taste like compared to milk chocolate…thanks Tom 👏👏👏🟦

Listening to you stir the bubbling candy is wonderful ASMR. 😊 Thanks for sharing this. It's much less intimidating now I've seen it done, rather than just reading a recipe.

I remember making this as a freshman in high school in Home Ec class in 1966. I think our recipe came from either Better Homes and Gardens or Betty Crocker cookbooks. We used a candy thermometer to bring it to desired temperature (didn't go by color). My family loved it. I made it for several years until my sister and I joined Weight Watchers and convinced our parents to follow the program, too. The was the end of my candy making. Now that I'm diabetic, I doubt I'll be making this but may enjoy a SMALL piece if it happens to be at the family Christmas do. :)

I had forgotten how simple this recipe is I haven't made this since I was in High School. My grandkids are going to love them 💕 thanks Tom!

That’s my favorite candy of all time!

Thank you sir !! One using salted butter, which my wife only buys lol. Can't wait to try this and also thank you for the visuals with the penny, I've seen her waste alot before because she couldn't find a good representation for what it should looks like. Merry Christmas 🎅 🎄!!

Thank you so much for this recipe ! I needed some recipes for nut free candies & cookies ,etc. for our family Christmas party . We have one darling Granddaughter who has allergies to nuts. ! This recipe will become a constant for me 🙏🏻

This Butter Toffee Candy recipe looks so delicious 😋Mr. Tom.

Thank you for making this Butter toffee .In my mind I .are it SOOO hard .I can't believe it is SOOOO easy . I sure will make this THANK YOU MERRY CHRISTMAS

This looks so delicious and soooo easy. I can’t wait until Christmas to make this. It is 109 degrees today in Texas. I need something to do inside the house! This is it!! We have a sharing neighborhood so I will definitely want to share this also.

I love how you demonstrate simply and slowly, showing all the steps clearly. Everything is well organized and easy to follow. I’m not particularly comfortable in the kitchen, but I’m going to try this! Thank you.

Wow, thank you! Just saw this video a couple nights ago and your instructions were so reassuring that I had to try it and it turned out great! I played your video so I could try to match my results with yours - that was super helpful. Enjoyed your stories, too. Thanks again.

I made your butter toffee & it was so easy. Thank you. It’s perfect & very tasty. Wish I could add photos to show it came out fantastic.

My Mom loves my microwave peanut brittle. My daughter and nephew loves my chocolate covered cherries. I love making candy at Christmas.

Thank you, Tom for sharing this toffee recipe. I cannot wait to make this for my family. Looks so easy. I always thought it was a massive process and would not tackle it. Am so excited and anxious to make this.

This is much easier than my recipe. I had to boil sugar and butter for 7 minutes. It's good, but I'm getting old and look for convenience nowadays. I've made your bar b que ribs, banana salad, and Italian spread. Tonight it's sweet and sour chicken. Everything was yummy! Thank you, don't quit, please.

Thank you so much. I had to make a double batch so I could take some to my work friends for Christmas. I knew when my family smelt this candy they were going to need some so I had to make a batch for work and a batch for Home. I made this recipe right alongside your videoand I really appreciate you putting this recipe out there making it easy for us folks. Happy holidays.

Love seeing Tom explain the recipes! Makes it easier❤️

This looks simpler enough for even me. I love toffee. Thank you

Never knew it would be so easy 3 ingredients and 30 minutes! Awesome, I gotta try this!

Love toffee, and this looks fairly easy to prepare. It would make a good Christma gift.

I literally just finished this candy. The cleanup was as easy as you said. It looks professional and tastes wonderful. Great recipe.

❤❤Im gonna try this! You both are so sweet! I hope you both know how very blessed you are to have each other!!!...😊❤❤Much love from EAST TENNESSEE ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Thank you Tom and Melissa for sharing this recipe. I will try it.

Very good video. I’ve tried to make toffee several times and it was a disaster. I really appreciate you showing every step - even cleaning the pan! Thank you again!

That candy looks wonderful. I can just imagine how it tastes. Anyone would love to get it as their gift. God Bless!!❤

Thank you for posting this recipe, Tom and Melissa! I was born in West Virginia. I love your accents! Love your show!

Around that same year, 1984ish my lovely mother introduced this recipe at Christmas time, it became an INSTANT obsession!! This candy is WONDERFUL!!! However, we somehow lost the recipe and couldn’t find it again. So THANK YOU for this video and recipe, this WILL be in my holiday cooking I do this year, I just know my family is going to be so happy to see it again! ❤

You for sharing the recipe! I think my favorite part of the video was watching you take that first bite and savoring and crunching my good taste the yummy Ness just watching that I have to make this recipe and like you will immediately package it off so I don’t eat it candy is my favorite food group L O L have a peaceful evening, thank you again for sharing!

Thank you cam that looks like a really nice recipe and super fast and easy and I love listening to you because you are so precise and detail explain everything exquisite

What a simple recipe. I will put this in my recipe box. I will be making this for Christmas. Thanks for sharing!!!

My grandmother's friend showed me how to make this type of candy once when I was young, but I forgot the details over the years. Glad to have this pop up in my suggestions today. The only thing different she did was add sliced almonds to the toffee mixture. But since we have a nut allergy in the house, I don't need them so this recipe is perfect. Thanks for posting!

Looks very delicious, thank you. I love it, I would eat it all too.
