Preparation Steps

• Line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
• In a medium heavy-bottom saucepan over medium heat, add butter and sugar. Cook, stirring consistently until the candy reaches 285°F on a candy thermometer. This takes about 35-45 minutes; it should be a dark amber color.
• Pour the candy mixture onto the prepared baking sheet. While still hot, top with chocolate chips and let sit for 1-2 minutes. Carefully spread the melted chocolate evenly over the toffee.
• Sprinkle the chopped pecans over the melted chocolate and gently press them in.
• Allow the toffee to cool and set for about 1 hour.
• Break into pieces and serve or store in an airtight container at room temperature.
