Tips & Tricks

  1. Use parchment paper to line the baking pan for easy removal of the toffee.

  2. Stir the filling constantly to prevent it from burning or sticking to the pan.

  3. Ensure the base and filling are completely cooled before adding the chocolate topping to avoid melting issues.

  4. Cut the toffee into portions after the chocolate has hardened for clean edges.

FAQS

  1. Can I use milk chocolate instead of dark chocolate?

    Yes, but keep in mind that milk chocolate will make the dessert sweeter, as dark chocolate helps balance the sweetness.

  2. Can I substitute almond flour with regular flour?

    You can, but almond flour adds a unique texture and flavor to the base that regular flour cannot replicate.

  3. How do I store the toffee?

    Store the toffee in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.

  4. Can I use unsalted butter?

    Yes, unsalted butter works perfectly for this recipe.

  5. What size baking pan should I use?

    A 20 cm x 30 cm (8 x 12 inches) baking pan is recommended for this recipe.
