• ½ cup water
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1½ cup pecans, toasted and coarsely chopped
• ½ cups pecans, toasted and finely chopped

Directions

• Line a 10 x 15 jelly roll pan with a silicon baking mat, or butter the bottom of the pan.

Continue cooking, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon, until temperature reaches between 305 degrees F. and 315 degrees F. Keep an eye on it as it can quickly burn. Remove from heat and stir in pumpkin spice.

• Wait a few minutes then sprinkle chocolate over hot toffee, letting it melt. Use a spatula to spread chocolate over toffee.
• Sprinkle ½ cup finely chopped and toasted nuts over warm chocolate and refrigerate until hard.
