One of my first Christmas posts on my blog was for this amazing and very addictive toffee recipe. It is considered a short cut to the traditional arduous toffee recipes. I recently found a recipe in the newspaper that used condensed milk so I thought I would give it a try.
It turns out the recipe in the paper was different than the one online. This one makes more sense and probably would have made a more crispy cookie.
I decided to try making this recipe with two different flavor combinations as I love the addition of butterscotch in this but definitely wanted to try this version. It is simple to make your sheets half and half as the basic recipe is the same.
Can you see the swirls of butterscotch in the left-hand side?
This homemade toffee recipe is so much easier because you don’t have to worry about a candy thermometer and there is some room for error. 
This is when you make you different flavors. I placed half the sheet with a mixture of butterscotch and chocolate the other just semi sweet chocolate.
Change it up try mint or peppermint toppings and chocolates. It is such an easy recipe you can make several batches in a short time.
I use an offset spatula to spread the chocolate and just be careful to keep each side separate if you are doing two flavors.
