Ghana Toffee
Delicious condensed milk candy of my childhood! A super easy recipe that will surely satisfy your toffee cravings!
Ingredients
- 1 condense milk
- 1 tablespoon butter (salted or unsalted)
- 1 pinch nutmeg (optional)
- 1 small pinch salt (if using unsalted butter)
Instructions
- In a non-stick pan, add your butter and condensed milk.
- Stir consistently on low-medium heat until the condensed milk darkens and thickens. It will start to stick to the bottom of the pan as it thickens but keep stirring and mixing together.
- After about 10 minutes (more or less time depending on pan and temperature of stove) you candy should be darkened and very thicken.
- When your toffee is thick and caramelized pour out onto a clean buttered surface.
- Let cool for about 3 minutes and work quickly to cut and shape into log and cut into smaller pieces. I suggest cutting your toffee into 4 pieces, rolling out 4 logs before proceeding to cut all the logs. You may need to butter the knife to prevent sticking.
- You can get up to 15-20 pieces of toffee from this amount of condensed milk.
- When the toffee cools completely it should harden to hard toffee candy. If it remains soft, it is still equally as enjoyable but may be because the condensed milk was not cooked long enough.
- Store in an air tight container and enjoy!
- I find it stays best for about a week.
