Luxury Chocolate Buttercrunch Toffee

This is the last new recipe 

 The Baking Bible Alpha Bakers

are making.

It was an uphill

battle for me

getting here.

I felt like the tail end runner

in a marathon 

that had to be carried across the finish line.

Lucky for me

I had a sous chef

who even made breakfast.

"I'll make you breakfast whenever I'm here

because grandpa isn't here to cook for you."

She's been baking along

with the Alpha Bakers/Heavenly Cake days

since she was three

and could scoot a chair up to the counter.

After stirring the toffee mixture

she decided

to add a 

saucier pan to the top

of her Christmas wish list.

First Thanksgiving apple pie

Baking can be lonely.

Having a child in the kitchen

always makes things lively.

Her younger sister

has dibs on

being here for the

Kouigns Amann 

finale.

This toffee is good.

It took a long time to reach the correct temperature.

I forgot the last step to put in the vanilla and baking soda.

Thankfully sous chef can read well

and caught my mistake.

I only topped it with chocolate and nuts.

Rose calls for also coating the bottom.

It truly is luxurious and buttery.
