Toffee
Ingredients
Milk powder - 500 gms
Butter - 250 gms
Cocoa powder - 8 tsps
Sugar - 750 gms
Method:
- Mix sugar with just enough water and keep it over fire.
- Boil sugar unitl it reaches one string consistency.
- Add butter and remove from fire. The butter will automatically melt in
the heat.
- Mix milk powder and cocoa and seive well.
- Add this with sugar little by little and stir well.(Add this before
the sugar syrup turns cool)
- The mixture should form a ball.
- Press this on a greased plate and allow it to cool for few minutes.
- Cut it into small pieces.
Note:
- If you like, you can even strew finely cut cashews, badams and
pistas on top of the pressed toffee before cutting, when it is still
hot.
- Sometimes, the toffee will be slightly loose. Don't panic. Place
the cut pieces in a air tiight container and keep it in refrigerator
so that it will become slightly hard. It will be as soft and yummy as
a bar chocolate you buy from shops.
