Melt butter and sugar

Off-white Section Separator Rounded Banner With Dots Melt butter over medium heat in a medium-sized saucepan. Once the butter is melted, stir in both sugars and clip the candy thermometer to the side of your pan. 1

Heat to ~275˚F

Off-white Section Separator Rounded Banner With Dots Stir butter and sugar mixture often during the 10-15 minutes it will take for the mixture to reach the soft cracking point, which is 270-290˚F (~135˚C). 2

Pour onto sheet pan

Off-white Section Separator Rounded Banner With Dots Once it reaches 270-290˚F, remove from heat and immediately stir in vanilla extract. Carefully pour the mixture onto your sheet pan and use a spatula to spread it out. 3

Add toppings

– Make sure to use a candy thermometer. The sugar needs to reach a temperature of 270-290˚F in order to reach the "soft crack stage", which determines the texture of the finished toffee. – Be careful when pouring or mixing the hot sugar. Not only is it hot, but it sticks to the skin, making it a bad combination to spill! – Use the smallest chocolate chips you can find to ensure they melt easily when you sprinkle them atop the vegan toffee mixture.
