Easy Gluten Free Chocolate Toffee Candy takes less than 20 minutes and it's amazing.
Try this Easy Gluten Free Chocolate Toffee Candy.
It's almost Valentine's day, and everyone knows that chocolate and Valentines go together. This delicious Easy Gluten Free Chocolate Toffee Candy is so good, you will want to eat the whole pan. A Quaker friend of ours, Sarah Nieto, gave it to me a few years ago. It's her aunt's recipe.
Sarah makes Chocolate Toffee Candy with saltine crackers, but I make mine with Almond Nut-Thins or Schar Table Crackers so they are gluten free, and the toffee is absolutely divine.
Always remember...if you tell people these are gluten free, there will be more for you! People tend to go "Meh" about gluten free recipes, but they don't know what they are missing. They will never know how amazing they are.
