Ingredients

1 1/4 cups butter, unsalted
1 cup sugar
1/3 cup brown sugar golden, packed
1/3 cup water
1 tablespoon molasses dark, unsulfered
2 teaspoons espresso, instant
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon ground
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 cups walnuts coarsely chopped, toasted
4 1/2 ounces chocolate, bittersweet finely chopped

Directions

Butter small cookie sheet.

Melt butter in heavy 2-1/2 quart saucepan over low heat.

Add both sugars, water, molasses, espresso, cinnamon and salt; stir until sugar dissolves.

Attach clip-on candy thermometer to pan.

Increase heat to medium; cook until thermometer registers 290 degrees F, stirring slowly but constantly and scraping bottom of pan with wooden spatula, about 20 minutes.

Remove pan from heat.

Mix in 1-1/2 cups nuts.

Immediately pour mixture onto prepared sheet; do not scrape pan.

Tilt sheet so that toffee spreads to 1/4-inch thickness.

Sprinkle chocolate by generous tablespoons atop toffee, alternating bittersweet and white chocolates.

Let stand 1 minute.

Using back of spoon, swirl chocolates to spread slightly.

Shake sheet to form even chocolate layer.

Using tip of knife, swirl chocolates to create marble pattern.

Refrigerate until toffee is firm, about 1 hour.

Break toffee into pieces.

Can be made 2 weeks ahead. Chill in airtight container.
