A delightful twist on a classic treat, these Golden Toffee Squares are perfect for any occasion.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Preheating ensures even cooking from the start.
Arrange the graham crackers in a single layer on a baking sheet.
Make sure the crackers are touching to create a solid base.
In a saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat, then stir in the brown sugar until fully combined.
Stir continuously to prevent the sugar from burning.
Bring the mixture to a gentle boil and let it cook for 2 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Keep an eye on the mixture to avoid overcooking.
Pour the toffee mixture evenly over the crackers, spreading it out with a spatula.
Work quickly as the toffee sets fast.
Sprinkle the chopped pecans over the toffee layer.
Press the pecans lightly into the toffee for better adhesion.
Bake in the preheated oven for 5 minutes.
Watch closely to prevent over-baking.
Remove from the oven and let it cool completely before breaking into squares.
Cooling allows the toffee to set properly for clean cuts.
