Milk Toffee

This is a fairly easy but yummy candy to make. Some recipes call for sweetened condensed milk but you can make it just normal milk and sugar.

Ingredients

2/3 cups raw sugar
2/3 cups milk
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 tablespoon butter
1 teaspoon cocoa powder
1/3 cup chopped cashews



Method

  1. Add milk and sugar to a small saucepan and heat and bring to the boil
  2. Continue to heat on medium-high until mixture, whilst regularly stirring for about 7 minutes or until mixture begins to thicken.
  3. Reduce heat to low-medium and heat until mixture reaches 240C on a candy thermomemeter. (Or until it forms a firm ball a drop of the mixture is placed in cold water).
  4. Take of the heat and mix in the butter, vanilla, cocoa, and cashews.
  5. Pour onto pan lined with baking paper.
  6. Allow to set slightly (about 30 min) and cut into desired shape and then allow to set completely
  7. Eat.
