Butter Toffee Cashew Crunch: Discover the Perfect Recipe

A delicious and crunchy treat made with cashews coated in a rich butter toffee sauce.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups cashews, unsalted
  • ½ cup butter (1 stick, unsalted)
  • 1 cup brown sugar, packed
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Spread the cashews evenly on a baking tray and toast them in the oven for about 8-10 minutes until lightly golden and fragrant.
  3. In a medium saucepan over medium flame, melt the butter and combine it with both sugars and salt.
  4. Stir constantly until it reaches a gentle boil, then allow it to boil without stirring for around 5 minutes.
  5. Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract and baking soda, being cautious as the mixture may bubble.
  6. Pour the toffee sauce over the toasted cashews on the baking tray and mix well.
  7. Return the baking tray to the oven and bake for an additional 10-12 minutes, stirring halfway through.
  8. Remove the tray from the oven and let it cool completely before breaking apart any clusters.
  9. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for about one week, or refrigerate for up to two weeks.

Notes

  • Use high-quality cashews for the best flavor.
  • Dark brown sugar can add a deeper flavor to the toffee.
  • Be cautious when adding baking soda as the mixture may bubble up.
