English Toffee

I make this recipe every year around the holidays-it's scrumptious!

Ingredients:

1 pound butter

2 cups sugar

1 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon vanilla

semi-sweet chocolate chips or dark chocolate (optional)

Melt butter and sugar in a pan. Cook to 300 degrees. Remove from heat and add salt and vanilla. Pour into a greased pan. Let cool slightly, then add chocolate. Allow to melt, then spread. Let cool completely. Break and serve.

Note: Next time try adding 1/2 tsp. salt instead of a full teaspoon.
