What's a good firm, yet still chewy candy recipe that has a full-bodied, buttery flavor?

Pardon my vagueness when asking for the butter candy recipe. It’s just that I have all sorts of confusion distinguishing the difference between caramel, toffee and butterscotch.

All I need is a recipe for a buttery, chewy candy :D

This is for this Florentine cookie-inspired candy I plan on making thanks!

    Butter Toffee

    * 2 1/3 cups sugar
    * 2 cups butter
    * 1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons water
    * 2 tablespoons light corn syrup
    * 1 1/2 cups chopped walnuts or pecans, toasted
    * 1 cup (6-ounces) semi-sweet or milk real chocolate chips

    Directions

    1. Butter 15x10x1-inch jelly-roll pan. Combine all ingredients except nuts and chocolate chips in heavy 3-quart saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until butter is melted.
    2. Reduce heat to medium-low. Continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until candy thermometer reaches 300°F or small amount of mixture dropped into cold water forms hard brittle strands (25 to 40 minutes). Stir in 1 cup nuts.
    3. Pour mixture into prepared pan; spread to desired thickness. Sprinkle chocolate chips over hot candy; let stand 5 minutes. Spread melted chocolate evenly over candy. Sprinkle with nuts. Cool completely (at least 3 hours). Break into pieces. Store in airtight container in a cool dry place up to three weeks.
    4. TIPS: Test your thermometer in boiling water. If the water boils at a temperature other than 212°F, adjust the temperature accordingly.
    5. If your toffee separates during cooking, carefully and slowly add about 1/2 cup hot water, 1 tablespoon at a time, and stir constantly.
    6. If you prefer a thinner toffee, use two buttered (15x10x1-inch) pans or cookie sheets and pour half of toffee mixture on each; spread to desired thickness.
