Butter Toffe
The ingredients that make up butter toffee include unsalted butter, granulated sugar, light corn syrup, water, vanilla, almonds, and dark chocolate. You can choose a different type of chocolate, but when I was working on this recipe, I found semi-sweet chocolate too sweet.
The English toffee eaten with regularity in America is also called buttercrunch. What's the difference? Primarily, the difference rests in the ingredients. Toffee in Britain is made with brown sugar, whereas buttercrunch is made with white granulated sugar.

English toffee is a type of confection made with butter, sugar, and usually almonds. It has a crunchy texture that melts in your mouth. Regular toffee is similar but does not contain any nuts or other ingredients like chocolate.
