Ingredients:  
½ pound butter
1 C sugar
½ tsp. Vanilla
¼ C chopped, fine pecans
Directions:
Directions:
In heavy saucepan, put in butter and sugar. Set heat just above medium. Stir lightly as butter melts. Continue stirring (not beating) just to prevent burning. Stir until the mixture turns a brown color (8-12 minutes). Hard crack (302 degrees) when tested. Remove from heat; stir in vanilla and pecans. Pour into ungreased 7x11 pan. Break 2 Hershey bars in pieces and place on top. Spread. Let sit over night. Turn pan upside down and the toffee should come out. Use the handle of a knife (or whatever you can find) to break apart.

1. I sprinkle another ¼ C of pecans on the top after the chocolate is spread.
2. Instead of pecans, you can also use almonds or walnuts.
