  • Sheet pan lined with parchment paper.
  • Pour the toffee on the sheet pan as soon as it’s out of the microwave. 
    Spread out by tilting pan to create a thin layer of toffee.

    This is the easiest, fastest prepared, tastiest candy ever. A perfect substitution for a Skor candy bar-my favorite candy bar. Thank you for this recipe that I will make anytime I want a Skor candy bar.
