”Tis the season for baking 🙂 We are having fun making treats and giving them away 🙂
Candied Almonds
1/2 cup water
1 cup sugar
1 TBsp cinnamon
2 cups almonds
Mix water, sugar and cinnamon in a saucepan over medium heat. Add almonds and stir. Keep stirring until all of the water has evaporated – the pour the candied nuts onto a cookie sheet to cool.
They make great gifts – unless a 13 year old boy in your house, eats them all!
Chocolate toffee candy
I have been making this for over 15 years 🙂 simple and yummy!
1 1/2 cups butter
1 1/2 cups sugar
1/2 tsp vanilla
Cook in a sauce pan on medium heat. Stir continuously until it reaches 295 on a candy thermometer ( not any longer or it will scorch. )
Pour into a greased pan and top with 2 cups of chocolate chips. Let the chocolate melt and spread it. Sprinkle sea salt
Cool and break up 🙂
