Mouth-watering toffee

1 lb butter
1 cup white sugar
1 cup brown sugar, packed

2 cups chocolate chips (milk or semisweet)

candy molds

In a heavy saucepan, combine butter, white sugar, and brown sugar. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly until mixture boils. Boil to brittle stage, 300 degrees F without stirring. Remove from heat.

Pour candy into candy molds. Spread chocolate chips over candy and let melt.

After candy cools, break into bite-size pieces.

For molds, use break-apart hard candy high temperature molds like these:
