Homemade Pumpkin Spice Toffee
Fans of the iconic Starbucks Pumpkin Spice Latte (PSL for short) will love the taste of this delicious fall treat. I don’t know about you, but I can’t get enough of the limited-edition pumpkin spice products we see in the fall months. Pumpkin spice marshmallows, pumpkin spice yogurt, pumpkin spice Cheerios cereal, pumpkin bagels topped with Philadelphia pumpkin spice cream cheese, waffle mix, and anything with real pumpkin in the ingredients… I love it all! In one bite of this toffee, you get that perfect pumpkin flavor, with notes of nutmeg, ginger, allspice, and clove. The quick dip in white chocolate chips balances the spice with sweetness, and you can add nuts or pumpkin seeds to add even more texture. Make this gluten-free or vegan by watching the type of chocolate you use. This toffee pairs perfectly with lattes, a mug of hot chocolate, or crumbled-over ice cream. The recipe comes from one of my new favorite cookbooks Sally’s Candy Addiction written by Sally McKenney, writer of the incredibly popular food blog Sally’s Baking Addiction. Sally’s blog is one of my absolute favorites, I’ve been following her blog for about 4 years now. You can tell she just pours her heart into everything she makes and she is so incredibly talented! The photos in this cookbook are gorgeous and you’ll find an accompanying photo for each recipe, which I love. It’s so nice to be able to see what the outcome is rather than guessing what exactly it is you’ll be making. This is her second cookbook, if you love this one you’ll also love her first, Sally’s Baking Addiction.
As soon as I got this book in the mail I scoured it over because I couldn’t stop swooning over all the deliciousness on every page inside! You can only imagine the number of bookmarks I had in it and how hard it is to choose what to make first, my kids were having a hard time helping me choose too! I’ve absolutely loved candy as long as I can remember so this book has my name written all over it! It has all the perfect recipes for the sweet tooth in all of us. From dessert to an after-school snack, I need to have treats on hand for a boost. This book is straightforward and easy to follow, which I love because candy-making can be so tricky and unforgiving. If candy-making has been something you don’t dare venture into, this book will help you find so much more confidence that you can do it and do it well!
In this book you’ll find everything from the classic candy recipes like your Grandma made to those loaded with candy bars and of course, those dunked in a generous coating of chocolate – which she’ll teach you how to temper in the book so you can get that perfect melt-in-your mouth texture. I’d give you the list of all the recipes from this cookbook that I can’t wait to try but I’d just have to list out the whole book! Some of the ones that first caught my eye are Strawberry Buttercreams, Southern-Style Pecan Pralines, Saltwater Taffy, Mint Truffles, Vanilla Cake Pops, Nutella Truffles, Salted English Toffee, Lemon Cream Pie Truffles, Chocolate Sea Salt Caramels, Snickers Cheesecake and Birthday Cake Fudge.
