Default Treacle Toffee

TREACLE TOFFEE
1 pound sugar
condensed milk
2 tablespoons black treacle
2 ounces butter

Put all ingredients in a large saucepan and dissolve the sugar over a gentle heat. When all the sugar is dissolved, bring the liquid to the boil. Be careful - if your saucepan is not large enough then the mixture will boil over! Keep the liquid on the boil for a few minutes, stirring to stop it from sticking. Test when the toffee is ready by dropping a tiny amount into a cup of cold water. If it is ready, the mixture will not dissipate, but form into a small, hard lump. Turn the mixture out into a greased, shallow baking tray. Whilst the toffee is set but still warm, cut it into squares. Leave to cool.
