wallydetroit Posted August 31, 2006 Share Posted August 31, 2006 English Toffee (vegan crack) Ingredients (use vegan versions): 2 cups sugar 2 cups margarine 2-12 ounce bags of vegan chocolate chips 2 teaspoons of veg. shortening walnuts (optional) candy thermometer Directions: Get a cookie sheet ready with wax paper on it. Medium size pan on medium heat, melt margin and vegan sugar. Stir constantly until you reach 285 degrees on the candy thermometer. (Usually about 15 minutes when hard crack stage sets in. You can also test in a glass of cold water by dropping in a bit and seeing if it hardens and is crunchy, which means it is ready) Pour out mixture onto wax paper cookie sheet. Let it cool. Set up a double boiler system and melt 1 teaspoon of shortening first and then add a 12-ounce bag of chocolate chips. When melted, pour on one side of the toffee batch, and spread out. Put in fridge and let cool. When chocolate has hardened flip entire toffee batch over on another piece of wax paper and peel off old wax paper. Repeat double boiler procedure and put in fridge. After cooled, you can now break up and eat. Please store in the fridge, and should stay fresh about 2 weeks. My friends call this vegan crack because it is so addicting. So please Beware! With nut option you can add them to the batch just before the hot toffee is being poured out. You can also blend up the nuts to coat the top and bottom of the chocolate before it cools.
