Method

PREPARE: Line a 9-inch square baking dish with parchment paper.
COOK THE TOFFEE: Combine the sugar, butter, water and salt in a heavy-bottomed saucepan over medium heat. Attach a candy thermometer and stir with a wooden spoon as the mixture slowly comes to a boil. Once boiling, stir another 2–3 times as it reaches 290°F.
ADD THE CHOCOLATE: Remove from the heat and stir in the vanilla. Immediately pour into the prepared dish. Let stand for 2–3 minutes, then scatter the chocolate chips over the top. Cover with foil for 5 minutes to melt the chocolate.
CHILL AND BREAK: Spread the melted chocolate evenly and add nuts or sprinkles if desired. Refrigerate for 2 hours, then lift out and break into pieces.
