Hi Anna, I presume the tempered chocolate for the second side of the toffee will harden if left in the bowl at room temperature. How long does it take for the chocolate on the first side to harden?
i know Im asking randomly but does any of you know of a way to get back into an instagram account..? I stupidly forgot my account password. I would love any tricks you can offer me
You are my Favorite Chef Anna Olson. For every reason. You are awesome. Everytime I do one of your recipes people think that I'm an expert Baker. Then I tell them about you. Anna Olson. I Love you
I made a toffee base, added my melted chocolate on one side only and put some crushed Butterfinger candy bar bits on top. That's what I had in my pantry. Next time I will make this recipe. The tempered chocolate has a beautiful glossy finish and the toasted slivered almonds and sea salt sounds amazing! Thank you Chef!
I’ve always just made toffee (thicker than this) then poured chocolate morsels on top while warm, smooth until melted sprinkle on pecans, cool, then done. it’s so good. I never had issues with sticky toffee in the fridge. Easy and can’t make enough because it disappears.
👍😍OMG OMG OMG!!! Thank you!! I followed the video and your instructions....I’m in tears because I DID IT!!! I made this and the chocolate molten cake recipe. They both turned out perfect! You give perfect instructions and demonstrated exactly what to do!! Bless you!! Thank you!!🤗💞🤗
I’m wondering what you do with the other half of the melted chocolate while you’re waiting for the first chocolate layer to set up - re-melt it when it’s time to spread it?
It’s ALWAYS fun to watch you talk , and explain . You really showcase your utter enthusiasm and passion ❤️❤️♥️♥️, plus your sweet mellow sense of humor . I have all your cooking books , and to me they’re a staple in my cooking .
You just made Almond Roca. Love it. I make this as a one-sided treat, but with a slight difference in prep. Once the hot toffee mixture is poured onto the pan I then take a LARGE chocolate bar (450gms?) and break it into same sized large pieces. Drop these into the hot toffee in even spaces. Take a silicone spatula and GENTLY wipe the chocolate over the surface, completely coating the toffee (the chocolate melts quickly). Then take your almond slices and spread on the surface. I DO store mine in the fridge and don’t have any problem with stickiness. It’s so addictive to eat my family has taken to calling it Crack Candy.
Anna can you post full episodes of Bake with Anna Olson to your channel? I will binge watch them!!! ❤️ this looks so delicious and thank you for showing how to temper chocolate in an easy way 😊 🍫
I made this a few nights ago and it is INCREDIBLE! My Father-in-law asked for a bigger batch next time, lol. Thanks so much for sharing. This was incredibly easy to make but so tasty. Lee x
I am definitely trying this recipe it looks so delicious like it has the perfect amount of caramel, lots of love to you Anna. I wish you good health and happiness from Beautiful B.C 💖
When the first side of chocolate coating on the butter scotch toffee is setting what should we do to the remaining tempered chocolate? Because it will set too meanwhile the first chocolate coating on the butter scotch is setting. How to again temper the remaining chocolate? On what temperature shoud we reheat it so the snap effect remains?
I made this about a week with white Chocolate pistachios and edible rose petals and edible gold as a gift. Thankyou for sharing with us my friend loved it...💜🌻💛
I took your recipe and watched another video and I came up with my own and it has toasted chopped pecans on the bottom and then chocolate on top and then some finely chopped walnuts on top with a little bit of coarse salt and it's the Bomb 💣
I made toffee a few weeks using a different method, this method sounds better. Can’t wait to give it a go! Thanks for sharing! Also newbie to your channel!
I have seen 10-11 of your videos, I like them very much, you are clear and fun. It is quite a shame that this channel is not so popular as mainstream ones, if I think at channels like Tasty, I get a bit sad. Keep going, you do an awesome job :)
Hello Anna your recipes looks so good. I am a vegan guy for about 19 years, but always look for great stuff to inspire me i do love cooking. and always try to change it for a vegan version. gave us some vegan too please love your stuff thanks and kisses from London
Hi Marcello! Thanks for your comment! A few of the questions that were answered in recently released "Ask Anna" video cover substitutions for eggs and milk products, so please check that out for more info on veganizing recipes!
Anna hi. Do I need to temper the chocolate twice since I'll have to wait to flip and coat the second side of the candy? Can I reheat the chocolate in a microwave for the second coat? I also read where somebody had used the microwave to heat the water/ sugar solution to prevent crystallization of the toffee. What instant read thermometer are you using?
You'll likely have to re-temper the chocolate. I wish she had mentioned this. Melting chocolate in the microwave is perfect because it's a water-free environment, but as you can't check the temperature while the chocolate is in the microwave, I would suggest doing your initial melt in the microwave (on 50% power), then transfer to the double-boiler for the final raising of the temperature.
I would appreciate your advice on what to do once the chocolate is tempered (at which point you poured it over the butterscotch) but I want to use frozen cake pops or chilled marzipan shapes, that would make the chocolate cold. What am I supposed to do to keep the chocolate tempered so it doesn't melt when I hold the chocolate covered cake pops or marzipan strawberries etc.? Thanks! Your butterscotch looks yummy and I will be making that soon! ❤️
I’ve tried this twice and each time the butter separated out when I poured it onto the pan. First time I used cheap butter, second time went with a much better one but did the same. Suggestion?
This looks so yummie, I ran out the door to get the ingredients and a thermometer. Unfortunately, this is the first time I failed at one of your recipes. I think it requires some skill to get this right. I will keep trying though!
Hello and thank you. My question is what brand of chocolate are you using? The shape of the chocolate wafers youre adding alooks like the chocolate "melts" you see in the cake decorating section of craft stores, but I do not wish to use any ingedients containing palm oil in my recipe. If your chocolate is not those melts, where do yiu buy them ?
Mmmmmm...so delicious looking! I am afraid of the sugar process. Hear nightmares from other cooks...any secrets to get sugar correct and not burn myself or the house...lol...thank u for the gr8 instruction...oh question, since I don’t like almonds could I replace them with sweet flaked coconut?
I'm curious what happens after you put that first layer of chocolate and the point where you flip it over. What did you have to do with the remaining chocolate for the second side?
When I got to 300 degrees, the butter and the sugar suddenly partially separated, and the suger kind of crystallized, so when I poured it on the tray, I got a grainy texture and the oils from the butter around it, instead of a smooth homogenous mixture like yours. Do you know what I did wrong?
@@shaik.m.834 I made it today, also split it the first time. 2nd one came out better. I stirred at the beginning until it was emulsified and simmering, and then once more at the end when you add the vanilla (very gentle stirring). If you have the heat low enough it doesn't need much stirring at all. For me, the confection is still a bit underwhelming for the effort..just my 2 cents.
Yeah toffee is a bit tricky. I heard that you should stir it gently with a whisk, under whisking it will make it separate, same thing with over mixing it. Hope it works out better for you next time.
I made this today and it is so wonderful ❤️ especially since there is no gross corn syrup in it! My only complaint is there were no timeframes for either the toffee or tempering. It would have been nice to know this is not a quick recipe.
If you don't mess with tempering just toss your chocolate on top of the toffee after you pour it out hot. Use a metal spoon to spread the melting chocolate smooth
My butter crunch center turned out sugary, and not shinny. It crumbles more than snaps. I ended up cutting it, rather than breaking. Any ideas what went wrong, or how to improve for next time?
I just made this recipe. The toffee base is fantastic. I put the chocolate on. I melted Candy melts and put it on top only. I put it in the freezer to set the chocolate for a bit. The melted set chocolate did not adhere to the toffee base. This did not happen the first time. How do I prevent this from happening? If you could give me some advice on this it would be much appreciated.
Anna to put the chocolate on the other side don't we have to cool and set the top side before we are able to do the bottom? If yes then wouldn't the Chocolate solidify in the meantime? Can we melt it again or would it mess up the tampering?
Does altitude make difference when cooking toffee? I have never before had any difficulty, but I moved to south Texas and my toffee turned out to be a really hard crack toffee...and I only cooked it to 295 degrees.
Mine separates every time I get close to 300 degrees. Is my heat too low and I am taking too long to raise the temp? It does it separate because of the cooling affect of the vanilla at the last minute?
Thank you all for watching! Don't forget to use the recipe in the description, and have a great weekend!
I cant find any of your vidoes for fresh do you still post them? Well i only could find one. Please post i luv fresh. Thanks
Where can I find the recipe pls ?
Hi Anna, I presume the tempered chocolate for the second side of the toffee will harden if left in the bowl at room temperature. How long does it take for the chocolate on the first side to harden?

I have the same question. Did this ever get answered?
Yes, you're likely going to have to re-temper it.
Love watching Anna she is one of my favourite bakers...

I guess I can combine what I learned in the last recipe to help me make this one? Nice!
That's the plan! :)
1:37 how can sugar melt because of lower temperature? And isn't it already melted?
I can't wait to make this 💕👌🏾 Thank you
I love your channel 💖💖
Thank you for that! We are so thankful to the people who love what we make!
Anna thank u for your recepies i just suscribed and love your channel

I like to use the Black silicone VIBRO-SPATCHULA
I’ve tried this twice and each time the butter separated out when I poured it onto the pan. First time I used cheap butter, second time went with a much better one but did the same. Suggestion?
If your butter is separating out of your toffee, it may have been too humid on the day you made it.
This looks so yummie, I ran out the door to get the ingredients and a thermometer. Unfortunately, this is the first time I failed at one of your recipes. I think it requires some skill to get this right. I will keep trying though!
Alguien que tenga la receta en español por favor mi inglés no es muy bueno

What kind of chocolate was used? This looks great !
Does it matter if I use beet sugar, or should I use cane sugar?
Really nice video! ✌️

shai K.M. Did you mix the sugar and the butter vigorously?? If you did it, then it caused the separation . I hope that helped ❤️❤️❤️
I actually just tried again after a year, still its separating, even when I stir slowly. The sugar is crystilizing :(

شكراً للترجمه
مرحبا بك!
Oh Yum with Anna Olson great 👍
Can i use milk chocolate?
Truly cinematic!
With tempering of chocolate, how long is it good for?
If you don't mess with tempering just toss your chocolate on top of the toffee after you pour it out hot. Use a metal spoon to spread the melting chocolate smooth
I also use the almonds as the base for the toffee. Crushed walnuts on top of the chocolate
Anna, when you add a half teaspoon of salt, if you work with larger flaked sea or kosher salt, is the measurement different? Thanks!
My butter crunch center turned out sugary, and not shinny. It crumbles more than snaps. I ended up cutting it, rather than breaking. Any ideas what went wrong, or how to improve for next time?
Where did you get the little cake stands they are so cute I need some 😊
Anna -- PLEASE tell me you DO scrape out the full pot and don't really leave that much inside! Big fan here.
is there another nut that you can use besides almond, thank you they look great.
Go crazy.
If you double this do you have to dbl the water as well.?
I just made this recipe. The toffee base is fantastic. I put the chocolate on. I melted Candy melts and put it on top only. I put it in the freezer to set the chocolate for a bit. The melted set chocolate did not adhere to the toffee base. This did not happen the first time. How do I prevent this from happening? If you could give me some advice on this it would be much appreciated.
Videos are very nice.
Yes, the other thing in mind....is to sit and eat it all in one sitting, because it looks so tasty. Haha
Does it take 2 hours to cool? Will it be soft if I serve it before then?
Is this toffee recipe good for baked cookies?
Anna to put the chocolate on the other side don't we have to cool and set the top side before we are able to do the bottom? If yes then wouldn't the Chocolate solidify in the meantime? Can we melt it again or would it mess up the tampering?
Any time you re-melt chocolate, you need to temper it.
Clever flip method.
Does altitude make difference when cooking toffee? I have never before had any difficulty, but I moved to south Texas and my toffee turned out to be a really hard crack toffee...and I only cooked it to 295 degrees.
Is it necessary to sprinkle sea salt?
Mine separates every time I get close to 300 degrees. Is my heat too low and I am taking too long to raise the temp? It does it separate because of the cooling affect of the vanilla at the last minute?
