How to Prepare Chocolate Pecan Toffee [Vegan]

  1. Toast the pecans in a skillet on the stove over medium heat for a few minutes, until the pecans are fragrant.  Set aside.
  2. Make a ten inch square shell out of aluminum foil, allowing for 1" sides.  Place on a baking sheet and set aside.
  3. In a sauce pan add the sugar, vegan butter and water.  Using a candy thermometer let the mixture cook until exactly 305 degrees Fahrenheit, the 'hard crack' stage.  Watch it carefully, you cannot let the mixture get above 305 degrees.
  4. When the mixture reaches 305 remove from the heat and add the vanilla and salt and stir.  Pour into the tin foil shell. The mixture will spread, do not worry if it does not reach the sides.  Allow to cool for at least 45 minutes or until hardened and cooled completely.
  5. In a double boiler, melt the chocolate over medium heat.  When very smooth and melted pour over the top of the toffee mixture. Use an icing spreader or or knife to ensure the chocolate covers the toffee.
  6. Sprinkle the nuts on top, pressing down slightly to ensure they adhere.
  7. Place in the refrigerator until fully cooled.  When ready to serve, break into single serving sized pieces.
