Recipe of the Day

Have you tried the Johnsonville Bratwurst patties? They are so delicious and easy to fix. You don't even have to defrost them first! So, lastnight i made Bratwurst with saurkraut burgers. I cooked the patties in a skillet for 18 minutes (like it says on the box) I then added provolone cheese, grilled onions, and saurkraut and topped them with spicy brown mustard slapped them on a bun and VIOLA German style burgers!

BEST TOFFEE

Ingredients
2 cups butter
2 cups white sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
1 cup finely chopped almonds
Directions
1.In a large heavy bottomed saucepan, combine the butter, sugar and salt. Cook over medium heat, stirring until the butter is melted. Allow to come to a boil, and cook until the mixture becomes a dark amber color, and the temperature has reached 285 degrees F (137 degrees C). Stir occasionally.
2.While the toffee is cooking, cover a large baking sheet with aluminum foil or parchment paper.
3.As soon as the toffee reaches the proper temperature, pour it out onto the prepared baking sheet. Sprinkle the chocolate over the top, and let it set for a minute or two to soften. Spread the chocolate into a thin even layer once it is melted. Sprinkle the nuts over the chocolate, and press in slightly. Putting a plastic bag over your hand will minimize the mess.
4.Place the toffee in the refrigerator to chill until set. Break into pieces, and store in an airtight container.
