Those bars were my favorite! This recipe comes pretty close.

Macintosh Toffee Copycat Candy

1/4 cup butter

1 (11 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk (not evaporated milk)

1/4 cup corn syrup

1 1/4 cups brown sugar, packed

1 Grease an 8" cake pan.

2 In a large heavy saucepan, soften the butter.

3 Stir in remaining ingredients.

4 Stirring constantly, bring to a boil over medium high heat

5 Candy thermometer should reach just below hardball stage - approx 250-260 degrees.

6 Stir constantly as it will stick to the pan easily.

7 Pour into pan quickly and cool.

Note: Decreasing cooking time slightly will make a softer toffee. But don't decrease it too much or you won't get enough carmelization and browning and flavor.
