This rich, buttery toffee is deeply caramelized for a crisp, golden snap, then topped with a smooth layer of melted chocolate and finished with flaky sea salt. Each bite is the perfect balance of sweet, salty, and crunchy—an irresistible, gift-worthy treat with a classic homemade feel.

Ingredients

• 1 cup salted butter
• 2 cups brown sugar
• 10 oz chocolate chips
• Flaky sea salt

Instructions

1. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
2. In a medium saucepan, combine butter and brown sugar over medium heat.
3. Stir every 30–60 seconds for about 10 minutes, until the mixture darkens and becomes thick and fluffy, similar to warm peanut butter. (Alternatively, cook until it reaches 300–305°F on a candy thermometer.)
4. Remove from heat and immediately pour onto the prepared baking sheet.
5. Spread evenly, then sprinkle chocolate chips over the top.
6. Let the chocolate sit for a minute to soften, then spread into an even layer.
7. Finish with flaky sea salt.
8. Allow to cool completely for 1–2 hours, until set.
9. Break into pieces and store in an airtight container for up to 2 months.
