Having never made Bonfire toffee before mum's friend who was a confectioner gave me a recipe for the hard Bonfire toffee. I asked if I wanted to make it softer and she explained how it worked. So i had a go at a fudge type chewy one and this is the result. One of neighbours young lads who came to our Bonfire night party tried some and said, "We got some from a well known supermarket before and this is better!" High praise indeed. NB only bring to the boil then simmer when milk is added like on the video - don't keep boiling it oops! You don't need to keep it in the fridge if you wrap it in greaseproof paper and keep it in a sealed plastic tub. It never lasts that long though funnily enough....
Here is the Recipe
