- 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
- 1 cup chopped toasted almonds
Instructions:
- In a medium-sized saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat.
- Stir in the sugar, brewed coffee, and salt. Cook, stirring constantly, until the mixture reaches a temperature of 290°F (143°C) on a candy thermometer.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and lightly grease it.
- Pour the toffee mixture onto the prepared baking sheet and spread it evenly using a spatula.
- Sprinkle the chocolate chips over the warm toffee. Allow them to melt, then spread the melted chocolate evenly over the toffee.
- Sprinkle the toasted almonds over the melted chocolate, gently pressing them into the surface.
- Let the toffee cool completely at room temperature until it hardens and sets.
- Once cooled, break the toffee into bite-sized pieces.
- Serve and enjoy!
Note: If you prefer a stronger coffee flavor, you can use a more concentrated brew.
