Cranberry Butter Crunch Bark
One Christmas I dreamed this recipe up when making buttercrunch toffee. It is an addictive treat that disappears fast.Heather Ferris, Vanderhoof, British Columbia
32 Servings
Prep: 20 min. Cook: 1 hour + chilling
Ingredients
1-1/2 teaspoons plus 1 cup butter,
divided
1 cup sugar
3 tablespoons water
8 cups chopped white candy coating (about 3 pounds),
divided
3 cups dried cranberries,
divided
Directions
Grease a 15-in. x 10-in. x 1-in. pan with 1/2 teaspoon butter. In a
heavy saucepan over medium-low heat, bring 1 cup butter, sugar and
water to a boil, stirring constantly. Cook over medium heat until a
candy thermometer reads 290° (soft-crack stage). Pour into
prepared pan (do not scrape sides of saucepan). Refrigerate for 1
hour or until hard.
Break toffee into pieces. Place in a food processor; cover and
process until coarsely chopped. Divide in half; set aside.
Butter two 15-in. x 10-in. x 1-in. pans with remaining butter. In a
microwave, melt 4 cups white candy coating. Stir in 1-1/2 cups dried
cranberries and half of reserved toffee pieces.
Pour onto one prepared pan; spread to edges of pan. Repeat with
remaining white candy coating, dried cranberries and toffee pieces.
Yield: 4 pounds.
