Step-by-Step Instructions for Churro Toffee Disneyland Copycat
  1. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper and spread the chopped almonds evenly. Set aside.
  2. In a heavy saucepan, combine the butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar, water, corn syrup, and salt. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally until the butter melts and sugars dissolve, about 5-7 minutes.
  3. Bring the mixture to a boil, insert a candy thermometer, and boil until it reaches 300°F, about 10-15 minutes.
  4. Once at the desired temperature, remove from heat and stir in vanilla extract.
  5. Quickly pour the hot toffee over the layer of almonds on the baking sheet. Spread evenly.
  6. Allow to cool at room temperature for about 30-45 minutes until firm.
  7. Melt white chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals until smooth, about 1-2 minutes.
  8. Spread the melted white chocolate over the cooled toffee evenly.
  9. Mix the granulated sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl. Sprinkle over the melted chocolate.
  10. Allow the chocolate to set completely at room temperature for about an hour before cutting into pieces.
