  • Be sure to spread the toffee out into an even layer on the baking sheet. This will ensure that it cooks evenly and results in a smooth texture.
  • Don't stir the toffee too much while it's cooking. This can cause it to crystallize and become grainy.
  • When spreading the chocolate over the toffee, be gentle to avoid cracking the toffee.
