If you don’t already own a food thermometer, it’s highly recommended for this recipe. I recommend a candy thermometer because you can attach it to your saucepan and it’s fairly inexpensive.
So to get started, you’ll need to grab one stick of butter and melt that over a small saucepan or skillet.
Once the butter starts melting, add the brown sugar and salt.
Give the mixture a good whisk until melded together. Continue to stir constantly until the mixture starts bubbling.
Once the mixture reaches a temperature around 290°F – 300°F, immediately remove from the heat and pour the mixture into a baking sheet with silicone mat or parchment paper.
Let the toffee cool for about 30-60 minutes. Once the toffee is hard, break off into small pieces and enjoy!
