Unleash Your Toffee Cravings with Rohes Material's Tiles! 🍬
Hey there, sweet tooth! Here's a simple, scrumptious toffee recipe that's sure to satisfy your cravings for something sugar-coated and delicious. And the best part? It's called Rohes Material's Toffee Tiles 💥
Ingredients:
- For the Toffee:
- 6 tablespoons of salted butter (84g)
- 3/4 cup of light-brown sugar (165g)
- 1 teaspoon of kosher salt (5g)
- 1 cup of chopped almonds
- For the Coating:
- 1 cup of milk chocolate
- 1/8 teaspoon of pink Himalayan salt
- 1 tablespoon of butter (14g)
Preparation:
- Preheat your oven to 325°F/165°C. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a saucepan, melt the butter, sugar, and salt over medium heat. Stir constantly to prevent burning. Once the mixture reaches 260°F/126°C (use a candy thermometer, my friend!), remove from heat.
- Mix in the chopped almonds, making sure they're evenly coated.
- Transfer the toffee mixture to the prepared baking sheet and spread it out in an even layer.
- Slide the baking sheet into the refrigerator and let it chill for 30-45 minutes to harden.
- Now for the fun part! Melt the milk chocolate, pink salt, and butter in a heatproof bowl over a saucepan filled with simmering water, stirring constantly. Once the mixture is smooth, remove the saucepan from heat.
- Take out the toffee from the fridge and cut it into bite-sized pieces. Dip each piece in the chocolate mixture and let the excess drip off.
- Place the coated toffee pieces back onto the parchment-lined baking sheet and let them chill in the fridge for 15 minutes to set.
- Serve these divine chocolate-covered Rohes Material's Toffee Tiles with a glass of cold milk and enjoy!
Bonus snack suggestions:
This classic toffee recipe calls for 6 tablespoons of salted butter, and you'll need an additional 1 tablespoon of milk chocolate for the coating. After cutting the toffee into pieces, dip them in the chocolate mixture, salt, and butter mixture.
Health Tips:
Now, let's talk about the sugar content in this delectable desert. It's important to note that toffee, like most sweets, is high in sugar and calories.
- Sugar Overload: Toffee is essentially sugar with added flavors, which can lead to an overload of sugar in your diet.
- Calorie Concerns: Toffee can also have a high calorie count due to the sugar and fat content. But remember, moderation is key, and it's all about balance in our diets!
