Skill: intermediate
Servings: 1
- 1 (12 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
- 2 ¼ cups white sugar
- 1 stick salted butter (4 ounces)
- 2 milk or dark chocolate bars, chopped
- ¼ cup peanuts, chopped finely
- Add milk, butter and sugar into a saucepan and bring to a boil. Stir constantly (to prevent sticking or burning) and cook gently until it becomes a caramel color. This generally takes around 15 minutes.
- Pour into a greased or wax paper or parchment paper lined 9 x 11 pan (wax is preferable but parchment works).
- Warm chocolate bars in microwave in 20-30 second increments or in a glass or metal bowl placed over a pot of simmering water (be sure water does not touch bowl or boil dry).
- Pour chocolate over toffee in stripes, then swirl the mixture with a toothpick to create patterns.
- Top with crushed peanuts.
- Cool completely in fridge.
- Slice and serve or package up in small paper twists.
