Hazelnut Toffee Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with a nonstick silicone liner and coat it with cooking spray. Set aside.
• On another baking sheet, roast the hazelnuts until fragrant, 10 minutes. Remove them to a plate.
• Combine the butter, sugar and salt in a medium saucepan and bring to a boil, whisking until melted. Cook, whisking occasionally, until the mixture registers 300 degrees F on a candy thermometer. Immediately remove from the heat and stir in the hazelnuts. Pour the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet and smooth with an offset spatula. Let dry for about 1 1/2 minutes, then scatter the chocolate chips on top. As they melt, spread the chocolate to the outer edges of the toffee with an offset spatula. Sprinkle with sea salt and freeze until set, about 30 minutes. Peel the toffee away from the silicone liner and transfer to a cutting board. Cut into pieces with a sharp knife. The toffee will keep, tightly covered, up to 1 week.

Steps:

• Line a 13-in. x 9-in. pan with foil; coat the foil with cooking spray and set aside. Butter the sides of a large heavy saucepan with 2 teaspoons butter. Cube remaining butter; place in pan. Add the sugar, water and corn syrup. Cook and stir until mixture turns golden brown and a candy thermometer reads 300° (hard crack stage)., Remove from the heat; stir in hazelnuts. Pour into prepared pan without scraping; spread evenly. Let stand at room temperature until cool, about 1 hour., In a microwave, melt chocolate chips; stir until smooth. Spread evenly over toffee. Sprinkle with hazelnuts, pressing down gently. Let stand for 1 hour. , Break into bite-sized pieces. Store in the refrigerator.

Steps:

• Coat a 12-by-17-inch rimmed baking sheet withcooking spray, and line with parchment. Melt butterand sugar in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Add water and corn syrup. Cook until a candy thermometer reaches 300 degrees. Add 1/2 teaspoon salt. Stir to even out color. Pour mixture onto baking sheet without spreading. Let cool.
• Spread chocolate over top, and sprinkle with hazelnuts. Refrigerate until firm, about 45 minutes. Break into pieces.

Steps:

• Combine the coffee ice cubes, half-and-half and 1/4 cup Chocolate-Toffee Syrup in a blender and blend until smooth. Pour into 2 glasses, top with whipped cream and drizzle with more of the syrup.
• Cook the sugar in a medium, heavy saucepan over medium heat, undisturbed, until it begins to melt, then continue to cook, stirring slowly with a fork, until melted and pale golden. Continue to cook, swirling the pan, until the sugar is a deep golden caramel.
• Remove from the heat and carefully add the warm cream down side of pan (the mixture will bubble and steam vigorously), return the caramel to the heat, add the chocolate and salt and stir until smooth. Remove the mixture from the heat and stir in the vanilla.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F.
• Line 2 heavy baking sheets with parchment paper. Finely chop the oats in a food processor. Transfer the oats to a medium bowl. Mix in the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
• Using an electric mixer, beat the butter and sugars in a large bowl until fluffy. Beat in the eggs and vanilla. Add the flour mixture and stir just until blended. Stir in the toffee, hazelnuts, and chocolate chips.
• For each cookie, drop 1 rounded tablespoonful of dough onto sheet, spacing 1 inch apart (do not flatten dough). Bake until the cookies are golden (cookies will flatten slightly), about 15 minutes. Cool the cookies on the baking sheets for 5 minutes. Transfer to a cooling rack and cool completely. (The cookies can be prepared 1 day ahead. Store in an airtight container at room temperature.)

Steps:

• Put the hot coffee and some Chocolate-Toffee Syrup in a large mug and mix until combined. Stir in the hot milk, top with some whipped cream and drizzle with more syrup, if desired.
• Cook the sugar in a medium, heavy saucepan over medium heat, undisturbed, until it begins to melt, then continue to cook, stirring slowly with a fork, until melted and pale golden. Continue to cook, swirling the pan, until the sugar is a deep golden caramel.
• Remove from the heat and carefully add the warm cream down side of pan (the mixture will bubble and steam vigorously), return the caramel to the heat, add the chocolate and salt and stir until smooth. Remove the mixture from the heat and stir in the vanilla.
• Yield: about 1 1/2 cups

Steps:

• Line a 9 inch square pan with enough aluminum foil to extend a little past the edges, and butter the foil.
• Place chocolate chips in a glass bowl, and cook in the microwave, stirring every 20 to 30 seconds until melted and smooth. Spread the melted chocolate in the bottom of the prepared pan. Set aside in the refrigerator to cool while you make the candy part.
• In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine the sugar, butter, hazelnuts and corn syrup. Bring to a boil, stirring to blend as the butter melts. Heat the mixture to 250 to 265 degrees F (121 to 129 degrees C), or until a small amount of syrup dropped into cold water forms a rigid ball.
• Pour over the cooled chocolate, and spread into an even layer. Return to the refrigerator to cool. When completely cool, break into bite size pieces, and store in an airtight container.

Steps:

• In a large saucepan, combine the coffee, flavoring syrup, sugar and cinnamon; heat through. Divide coffee mixture among four mugs., In a small bowl, beat cream and Nutella until thickened. Gently spoon onto tops of drinks. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• 1. Spread the chopped nuts on a cookie sheet and toast in 350 deg F oven for 10-15 min, stirring often. Watch carefully so they don't burn. 2. In a pot with a candy thermometer, melt the butter and add the sugar, corn syrup, and salt. 3. Stir frequently and cook the sugar until it reaches 285 deg F. This may take about 20 min. 4. Remove the pot from the heat and add the vanilla (if using it), then the nuts. Stir the mixture very well. You can place the pot back on the burner set to low to mix. 5. Spread the toffee on a cookie sheet (I like to have parchment on the sheet but you don't have to). A rubber spatula helps to push the toffee out flat and evenly. 6. Melt the chocolate chips in the microwave, 30-45 sec at a time, stirring well each time until just melted and smooth. Spread this on top of the toffee. 7. Let the toffee cool and harden. This takes about 2-3 hours at room temperature, but you could put it in the freezer to speed it up. 8. Cut the toffee with a heavy sharp knife and store in an airtight container with wax paper.
