Ingredients
- 1 cup butter
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla
- 2¼ cups roasted sea salt peanuts
- 1 bag semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
- Line a 9x13 cake pan with parchment paper and spread 2 cups of peanuts into an even layer.
- In a medium-sized pan, add the butter, sugar, and vanilla. Stir over medium heat until the butter has melted. Let the mixture come to a simmer.
- Simmer for 7 to 8 minutes, stirring occasionally and watching carefully, so it doesn’t burn. The mixture gradually turns darker and is still a little separated.
- When the mixture turns the shade of caramel and flows from the spoon in a ribbon, pour over the peanuts.
- Use an offset spatula to spread the mix over the peanuts.
- Pour the bag of chocolate chips over the top and let sit for 2 to 3 minutes, so the chocolate chips melt.
- Using an offset spatula, spread the melted chocolate over the layer of toffee.
- Chop the remaining ¼ cup of peanuts and sprinkle over the top.
- Let sit for 2 hours until the pan comes to room temperature, and then place it in the fridge until ready to enjoy.

Notes
- Watch the caramel carefully, so it doesn’t burn. The mixture will gradually turn darker and is still a little separated.
