English Toffee

Recipesfull introduces to you: Christmas Recipes. (English Toffee). This candy tastes wonderful and takes about 15 minutes to make. My sister and I did three batches in an hour one year for Christmas. I use a cast iron skillet and some times just a few of the almonds to help gauge the readiness.
