Great video and the toffee looks great. I made this tonight and while it set up just like yours mine had loads of oil that separated. I used the same ratio of sugar and butter as you did, but almost from the beginning the oil separated. I had to use three paper towels after I spread out on silicone mat to soak it all up. THis is my first attempt so would like to perfect. Btw I added 1/2 teaspoon at the end of cooking, taste just like a Heath Bar. YUMMMMMM THanks for your help.
@KissHope hmmmmm . . . perhaps you needed to cook the butter ans sugar more. Thank you so much for trying it out and letting me know! I appreciate it! I am happy it tasted great. Have a wonderful 2011! Take care!
That was vanilla I added at the end that made it taste like a real Heath Bar. If I would have cooked more it would have been too dark and tasted burnt. I make caramel sauce frequently so I am schooled as to when to take off the heat. As you said it only takes a few secs to go burnt. This was great stuff as half of the batch I made I ate! lol It was originally made for just gifts but Merry Christmas to me right..lol
Made another batch of toffee and this time up'd the amount of sugar to butter ratio and ended up with much less oil. I think it is what brand of butter and how the company may process it. Just watched a video of a lady that used Imperial margarine, she mentioned it is the only brand of margarine that will not separate. Might try that next time I make, however nothing replaces the taste of real creamy butter. Have a super day.
Hi , I have always wanted to know how you make 'old school' chocolate crackle slices, they are about half an inch in width, made using cornflakes, dark chocolate, golden syrup, butter, sugar, possibly a toffee brittle base and very, very chewy, you have to pull it apart to eat it, I cant find this recipe anywhere, thanks for your help x
Abso-tively ! Cant wait to whip up a batch or two for the holidays. Everyone will love it ! Great gift idea too. Thanks for sharing it with us. Fabulous and greatly appreciated !

I mean sugar and butter, I knew sugar caramelized on its own but not with butter. Good stuff!
