I tried to make English Toffee [Sally's Candy Addiction][@rev] but it didn't go well. I followed their direction on adding the nuts and, as it expected, it separated. I thought it was back together but it was not. As you can see in the picture, there was lots of butter all around it!

I also think it burned a little bit. I aimed for 285°F which is a tiny bit above the altitude-adjusted temperature but below that of the other recipes. But I started to also notice some more-cooked toffee coming up and got a mix of readings from 285 to 315!!!. I wish I knew how I mix it better while it was cooking!

Overall, it was fine but not particularly good in my opinion. Others at "Gluttonfest" liked it more than I did.

I would try this recipe again but I would not add nuts. I would either skip the nuts or pour over the nuts
