Peppermint Toffee

 

This "Peppermint Toffee" is the perfect treat for Christmas time. If you are like me and you wait all year for November when they start to stock the stores with all the Peppermint Bark then this recipe is ideal for you. The added bonus of this recipe is that even the most inexperienced baker can make this recipe in under 30 minutes. Honestly, I could go on and on about how wonderful this recipe is but let's just get down to it so you can try it for yourself!
