Pecan Toffee

Go Cook
After making this the first time, it was gone the first day and I knew I should have hid a private stash, its incredible! It will become one of those goodies you make for the holidays and parties. You'll look for any reason to make some! You will need a thermometer to be sure of the temperature when boiling this. Hope you love this as much as we do!
