This is really the best Toffee Butter Crunch that I've ever made. It's a little more time-consuming than my easy Microwave Toffee but the flavor is much more wonderful. Make the easy toffee for gifts and keep this for yourself! Cheryl

1 cup butter
3 Tbs. water
1 cup coarsely chopped blanched almonds, toasted
1 cup finely chopped blanched almonds, toasted
4 (4 1/2 oz.) milk chocolate candy bars, melted or 18 oz. milk chocolate chips or block chocolate
1 1/3 cup sugar
1 Tbs. light corn syrup

In large saucepan, melt butter. Add sugar, water and corn syrup. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally to hard crack stage (300 degrees).

Quickly stir in the coarsely chopped almonds, spread in well-greased 13x9x2" pan. Cool thoroughly.
Turn on waxed paper, spread with half the chocolate, sprinkle with half the finely chopped nuts. Cover with waxed paper, invert. Spread again with chocolate. Sprinkle with remaining nuts. If necessary, chill to firm chocolate. Break in pieces.

Spread the word
