Directions
Addictive Milk Toffee to Enjoy With Coffee,This is Aliya Allabaksh’s recipe from the Young Times magazine and she was the “Chef of the week” for the week from Jan20-27’th’04 for her submission. I hope you enjoy this one!,This recipe seemed simple enough, but I realized once I got going that there were a few things missing that might have inusred a more positive experience. For the ingredients, listed as “1 can condensed milk” & “500 g sugar” used a 14 oz can of sweetened condensed milk (maybe it’s supposed to be evaporated milk?) & using a kitchen scale for the sugar I measured 2-1/2 cups granulated sugar. The instructions don’t call for a specific pan size so used a 11×7 bar cookie pan. No. 4 instructs to cook until the mixture leaves the sides of the pan. On high flame it was starting to burn (even with constant stirring) so I reduced to medium to keep a simmer & then added a candy thermometer. At no time did the mixture “leave the sides of the pan” like a pie crust coming together does. So I was very confused as to how long to cook. After consulting toffee recipes in a couple cookbooks I kept stirring & cooking until the soft crack stage (290°). It was approximately 50 minutes of stirring & cooking at the medium heat, as if I went higher it would almost immediately boil over the sides of the pan. After letting the mixture cool in the 11×7 pan there was no way to cut it into squares. I broke pieces off like peanut brittle. The end result is a bit like a vanilla Tootsie Roll & you can chew on one bite for several minutes. I wish I knew what went wrong as the cardamom & cashews were very nice flavors. I may attack this one again in the future. Thanks for sharing, Charishma! Made for Unrated Asian recipe tag game.
