TOFFEE

(Wendy Lee Paffenroth, Pine Island, NY)

1 c. chopped walnuts

½ c. butter

¾ c. brown sugar, packed

½ c. semi-sweet chocolate chips

Butter an 8” x 8” baking pan; spread walnuts on the bottom. In a saucepan, heat butter and sugar; bring to a boil; stirring constantly. Cook until mixture darkens, about 7 minutes; immediately pour over walnuts. Sprinkle chocolate chips over the top; cover with a baking sheet to hold in heat until chocolate begins to melt. Spread chocolate over top. Refrigerate; break into pieces when cool. Makes about one pound.
