Why does the chocolate fall off of my homemade toffee?
by Sharon
(Cedar, Minnesota)
I have made this toffee recepe for about 4 years. Every time I go to put the chocolate on top it falls off once the chocolate has cooled.
I do let the toffee cool a day and then I put the chocolate on top.
I do not know if the toffee should return to room temperature or if I should dab the butter?
I do not do either. Would that help?
Hi Sharon,
Yes, dabbing or wiping off all of the excess butter from the toffee before adding the melted chocolate will help the chocolate to stick to the homemade toffee much better.
Also, I believe you'll have more success if you allow the toffee to come to room temperature before adding the melted chocolate.
Let us know if this solves the problem for you this time when making your chocolate toffee.
