Instructions

Prepare your baking sheet by lining a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
In a medium heavy-bottom saucepan over medium heat, combine butter and sugar. Stir consistently until the mixture reaches 285°F (140°C) on a candy thermometer, about 35-45 minutes.
Once it reaches a dark amber color, pour the mixture onto the lined baking sheet.
Sprinkle chocolate chips evenly over the hot toffee and let them soften for 1-2 minutes before spreading into an even layer.
Sprinkle the finely chopped pecans over the melted chocolate and gently press them in.
Allow the toffee to set at room temperature for about an hour.
Once set, break into pieces and store in an airtight container.
