My Mom called me last week and raved about some really good toffee one of her co-workers made. I did a little internet search, and found the recipe. It was so easy to make, and very delicious! My Mom also suggested I add some crushed candy cane and sprinkles to make it extra cute and Christmas-ee. Well, it worked. The candy canes gave it a nice extra little flavor, and they turned out pretty darn cute. I made a ton and passed it out to my neighbors
