Judy's Chocolate Toffee...A Holiday Staple!

After my husband and I got engaged, my mother-in-law gave me a recipe box full of my husband’s favorite meals and desserts. This toffee is a personal favorite.

JUDY’S CHOCOLATE TOFFEE

1 cup chopped pecans

3/4 packed brown sugar

1/2 cup butter

1 4.4oz Hershey bar (broken into pieces)

Butter 9x9x2 baking pan. Spread chopped pecans in pan. Heat sugar and butter in a pan over medium heat. Stir constantly. Once boiling, stir for 7 minutes. DON’T STOP STIRRING. After 7 minutes, remove from heat and pour over pecans. Place chocolate squares on top of the hot toffee and cover with a baking sheet to help the chocolate melt. Spread melted chocolate all over the toffee. Chill until firm. Break with the point of a knife and you’re done. Enjoy!
