   Cook over moderate heat, stirring gently, until candy thermometer registers 298 degrees.

4. 4

   Remove from heat and stir in vanilla until well combined.

   Pour the mixture onto a silicone baking mat or good parchment paper. Use a heatproof rubber spatula or offset spatula to spread quickly before the toffee sets. Spread thin.
