Coffee Toffee

by Made in Oklahoma Coalition

Reading Time: 2 minutes 

Love coffee? Love Toffee? These two flavors combine in a heavenly combination in this uniquely Made-in-Oklahoma creation!

The recipe includes ingredients from three MIO Coalition member companies including Griffin Foods Company, Neighbors Coffee and Braum’s Ice Cream and Dairy Stores.

Ingredients:

  • 1 teaspoon Griffin’s Vanilla Extract
  • 2 tablespoons Neighbors Coffee Instant Cappuccino, English Toffee
  • 1 pound Braum’s Sweet Cream Butter
  • 2 and a half cups granulated sugar
  • 3 tablespoons water
  • 2 (12 oz.) bags semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • Optional: Confectioner’s sugar or cocoa powder for dusting over toffee.

Instructions:

  • Grease a long sheet of foil and place onto a heat-resistant surface.  (If you have a Silpat silicone baking mat, this can be used instead of the foil.)  In a small bowl, mix the vanilla with the instant cappuccino mix; set aside.
  • In a medium saucepan over high heat, bring butter, sugar and water to a boil.  Using a candy thermometer, cook the mixture, stirring constantly, until it reaches 300 F degrees or the ‘hard crack’ stage.  Immediately remove from heat and stir in the vanilla/cappuccino mixture; blend very well.  Carefully pour hot toffee onto prepared foil or baking mat.  Distribute chocolate chips evenly over the surface of the hot toffee.  Using a spatula, spread the melted chocolate evenly over the candy.  Allow candy to cool completely, then break into serving pieces and enjoy!
  • Tip: You can dust confectioner’s sugar or cocoa powder over the cooled toffee if you wish.
