Ingredients
- 2 cups packed brown sugar
- 2/3 heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1/3 cup crushed hazelnuts
Instructions
- Layer a 6″x4″ baking dish with foil or parchment paper, leaving some hanging over the sides. Generously butter and set aside.
- Heat the brown sugar and heavy cream over medium-low heat until it just starts to boil, then turn the heat down to low. Attach a candy thermometer to the side of the pan, and stir the sugar until the thermometer reads 240*F, or soft-ball stage. This will take about 10-15 minutes. Once the temperature is 240*, remove the sugar from the heat and add the butter, but do not stir the butter in. Let the mixture sit until the temperature is at least 140*F- about 20 to 30 minutes.
- When the temp is low enough, begin mixing with a hand mixer on low. Mix, about 5-7 minutes, until the candy has thickened and any gloss has started to fade.
- Pour the candy into the buttered dish and smooth out any large bumps. Layer the crushed hazelnuts on top evenly, and set in the fridge at least 2 hours, or until firm. Remove from the dish by pulling up on the overhang side of parchment or foil, and cut into squares. Store tightly wrapped and chilled.
