Ingredients

• 1 cup Unsalted butter
• 1 cup Granulated sugar
• 1 cup Light brown sugar
• 1 tbsp Light corn syrup
• 1 tbsp Water
• 1 tsp Vanilla extract
• 1.5 cups Toasted almonds, chopped
• 1 cup Semisweet chocolate chips
• 0.25 tsp Flaky sea salt (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Prepare a baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat. Set aside.

Step 2

In a medium, heavy-bottomed saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat.

Step 3

Stir in the granulated sugar, brown sugar, corn syrup, and water. Attach a candy thermometer to the side of the pan, ensuring the tip is submerged but does not touch the bottom of the pan.

Step 4

Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon or heatproof spatula. Once boiling, stop stirring and let the mixture cook until it reaches 300°F (hard crack stage). This should take about 10-15 minutes. Watch carefully to avoid burning.

Step 5

Remove the saucepan from the heat and quickly stir in the vanilla extract.

Step 6

Immediately pour the hot toffee mixture onto the prepared baking sheet and spread it into an even layer using a spatula. Work quickly as it sets fast.

Step 7

Sprinkle the chopped toasted almonds evenly over the toffee while it is still warm, pressing lightly to adhere.

Step 8

Scatter the chocolate chips over the warm toffee. Let them sit for 2 minutes to soften, then use a spatula or the back of a spoon to spread the melted chocolate into an even layer.

Step 9

Optional: Sprinkle a touch of flaky sea salt over the top for added flavor.

Step 10

Allow the toffee to cool completely at room temperature or in the refrigerator until set, about 1-2 hours.

Step 11

Once fully hardened, break the toffee into bite-sized pieces.

Step 12

Store the Toffee Almond Crunch in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 weeks.
