Difficulty:: Easy

Instructions

1 cup slivered almonds
1 cup, 2 sticks unsalted butter
3 tbsp water
1 cup sugar
1 tbsp corn syrup (I used dark, you can use light if you prefer)
3/4 tbsp salt
6 oz bittersweet or semisweet chocolate, finely chopped

- 1
  Completely line a 13" x 9" by 2" pan with tin foil and spread 1/2 cup of slivered almonds evenly across
- 2
  Take the other half cup of almonds and finely chop them. Set aside.

  Now, the next step in this recipe is to make the toffee mix. Get out a pot and put on medium high heat. Rub unsalted butter on the sides then put two sticks into the pot and let melt.

  Add 1 cup sugar, 3 table spoons water, 1 tbsp of corn syrup (dark or light... I used dark) and 1/4 tbsp of salt. Stir it up and bring to a boil, then reduce to medium heat.

  Continue to heat on oven and stir frequently. Put in candy thermometer. When the mix reaches 290 degrees F, take off the oven and pour evenly in pan over the almond slivers. (Not Sure if Your Thermometer is Accurate? Calibrate it by Clicking Here)

  After a few minutes, spread finely chopped bittersweet or semi sweet chocolate evenly over the toffee mix. Let it sit long enough for the chocolate to melt evenly over the mix

  Then put into the refrigerator for an hour or two. Long enough that it cools hard. This picture isn't so great, but for those of you with eyes of a true chef, I did not let the chocolate melt long enough (oops) before putting into frig. Still tasted great though
