A Note About Toffee Candy Crunch

By Cheryl Sandberg

Heath Bar - oh yeah! You've gotta love that crunchy perfect toffee flavor. I love toffee; it's a smoky flavor that I can't even describe. I love to add the toffee crunch to the basic ganache recipe and then dip in chocolate for a toffee truffle. I guess I'm not the only one who loves it. One of my favorite stories from our hands-on classes happened very recently.

This class happened to be with one of my close friends and I was demonstrating the usual candies, truffles, turtles, molded chocolate, and similar candies. I met some great people that night. One woman stuck out in my mind. She had a bag of the toffee candy crunch in her hand and a puzzled look on her face. I was busy helping other people and answering questions. I noticed in a few minutes that she was still there, toffee candy crunch in hand. I finally asked her if I could help her with something or if she had a question. She woke out of her trance and said, "Oh! I KNOW I want some of this toffee, my question is how much?" She went on to ask for some ideas and recipes that she could use with her new found love. That lady's mind was working overtime! I've gathered some recipes and ideas using this toffee candy crunch.

White Chocolate Toffee Truffles

1 bag (12 ounces) chopped white chocolate
1/4 cup heavy whipping cream
1/2 teaspoon Madagascar bourbon vanilla
1/2 cup Toffee Candy Crunch

Place white chocolate in small bowl and microwave in 30-second intervals to avoid scorching. Pour in the heavy whipping cream that has been brought to room temperature. Stir in vanilla. Cover. Refrigerate 1 hour.

Using the truffle scoop, scoop into small balls. Roll them in your hand to make them a nice round shape, and dip into toffee candy crunch. Place in refrigerator until firm, about 30 minutes.

Store tightly covered in refrigerator up to 3 weeks. Serve chilled or let stand at room temperature 15 to 20 minutes before serving.
