Servings: Approximately 5 dozen pieces |
Ingredients: 3/4 cup butter 2 cups white (granulated) sugar 1 cup chopped almonds 2 cups milk chocolate chips 1/2 cup finely chopped almonds |
Instructions: In a saucepan over low heat, combine the butter, sugar and 1 cup chopped almonds. Stir constantly until mixture boils, then do not stir or shake. Heat to 300 to 310 degrees F (149 to 154 degrees C), or until a small amount of syrup dropped into cold water forms hard, brittle threads. Pour onto a large buttered cookie sheet. Immediately press chocolate chips onto the hot candy. As the chocolate melts, spread it into a coating over the candy. Sprinkle finely chopped almonds over the top; cool, and break into uneven pieces. Makes approximately 5 dozen pieces. |
