Pete Family Recipe Blog

I started this blog as a way of sharing the recipes in my mother's recipe boxes with my entire large family so everyone in the family can access any recipes they would like to have. My mom and dad both loved recipes and cooking. I think my mom liked baking better, and my dad loved to combine foods in new ways in cooking. The foods we ate while we were growing up are a memory that we all share. I'm sure my siblings will find a recipe or two that will spark some good memories. Please feel free to add recipes that I missed or send them to me and I will add them. I can also start a section of our favorite recipes if you send them to me.

Chocolate Toffee

1 cup chopped pecans or walnuts (optional)
1/2 cup butter
3/4 cup light brown sugar
1-6 oz. package chocolate chips.

Spread nuts over bottom or 8 inch square pan.  (you can double the recipe for a larger pan).  Combine butter and brown sugar in a saucepan.  Bring to a boil for 7 minutes, stirring constantly.  Pour immediately over nuts.  Allow to stand for a few minutes.  Sprinkle chocolate pieces evenly over the candy.  Cover pan with a bread board to keep in the heat.  When chocolate pieces are melted, spread evenly.  Break into pieces.
