Notes: Stir occasionally and gently with a wooden spoon until mixture reaches 260 to 265ºF. Continue cooking, stirring as few times as possible, until mixture reaches 300ºF. Stirring too much contributes to toffee separating. It is important to keep the mixture from burning, so stir gently once in a while. Store butter toffee in a container with tight-fitting lid in a cool, dry place. Do not refrigerate.
