Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1 1/2 cups pecans -- chopped
1 1/2 cups butter
1 1/2 cups light brown sugar
1 1/2 cups chocolate chips

Butter 9x13 pan. Sprinkle nuts in bottom of pan. Bring butter and sugar to
a
boil on medium-high heat, stirring constantly. Non-stick pan works b est.
Bring to Hard Crack (300F) on candy thermometer. Quickly pour over nuts and
gently spread to even it out. Sprinkle chocolate chips over hot toffee.
Cover with foil and let sit to melt chips for 10-15 minutes. Spread
chocolate with a spatula or knife. Slice while warm with a pizza cutter if
desired. Chill and break apart when cool. Keep cool in an airtight
container.

This recipe makes pretty thick toffee. I usually use a slightly larger pan
to thin it out. I also tend to go a bit heavy on the chocolate (yum!). I
often use a metal (bendable) pan and make it without the nuts.
