White chocolate toffee is an elegant dessert perfect for a holiday table or to serve with coffee. Once the toffee has set, sprinkle it with chopped dried cherries and pistachios. These dark red and green flecks make the white toffee look even more striking. The tartness of the cherry perfectly balances the sweetness, while the nuts add crunch. Before serving, cut the toffee into convenient small squares.
