Description

Ingredients

• 1 cup whole almonds
• 1 cup butter
• 1 cup sugar
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
• 2 cups milk chocolate or semi-sweet chocolate chips
• 1/4 cup finely chopped pecans

Directions

• Start by toasting your almonds. Either preheat your oven to 350 degrees F and toast on a parchment-lined baking sheet for 10 minutes or place almonds in a microwave safe bowl and heat for 2-3 minutes. Once the almonds are done, spread them out onto a foil or baking mat-lined baking sheet and set aside. 1. Combine butter, sugar, salt and vanilla. Cook over medium-high heat and bring to a gentle boil. Stir mixture constantly with a wooden spoon until it reaches a golden amber color. The toffee will take on a similar color as the skin of your almonds. This takes about 8 minutes. Pour mixture over almonds and spread evenly. 2. While the mixture cools, melt chocolate chips in a microwave safe bowl and spread on top of the toffee layer. Sprinkle with pecans and refrigerate for 2 hours before breaking into pieces. Enjoy!
