Homemade Chocolate Pistachio Toffee
A homemade toffee recipe with pistachios
Ingredients
- 2 cups sugar
- 2 sticks butter
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 16 ounces dark chocolate
- ½ cup roasted pistachios
- dash salt
Instructions
- Add sugar, butter, salt, and vanilla to a pot.
- Cook on medium-low heat until blended. Use a whisk to blend slowly.
- Gradually increase the heat and let the mixture boil. It should thicken and darken to a golden color.
- Continue to whisk to blend every few minutes. Mix slowly.
- Melt the chocolate in a microwave-safe dish.
- When your toffee is a dark golden color and registers 300 F degrees with a candy thermometer, remove and pour onto a parchment paper lined cookie sheet.
- Spread thinly over the parchment paper. Quickly dust lightly with cocoa powder and then quickly add the melted chocolate.
- Use a spatula to spread the melted chocolate over the toffee. Add pistachios.
- Refrigerate to cool. When the mixture is hardened, break apart then store the toffee in a container.

SPECIAL NOTE
Please know that every gluten free flour blend has a different starch to grain ratio. If you use a blend I didn't test, you may need to adjust your moisture levels in your baked goods.
