Almond Chocolate Brittle Sharon Storbo
Ingredients: 2 cups whole unsalted almonds (or another option is to use 2 cups Blue Diamond lightly salted almonds) 1 cup (2 sticks), unsalted butter, cubed ? cup warm water 1 cup granulated sugar 1 tsp. salt (only add if you use the unsalted almonds) 1 tsp. light Karo corn syrup 1 cup chocolate chips (either dark or semi-sweet or a mix of the two)
Other equipment needed: pastry brush candy thermometer
If you are using the unsalted almonds, heat oven to 300 F. Spread the almonds out on a baking sheet and bake/toast for 15 min, stirring twice during that time. Remove from oven and let cool.
If you use the Blue Diamond salted almonds you do not need to toast them.
1. Cut about 1? cups of the almonds in half. Chop the other ? cup (save these for spreading on top.)
2. Next, line a 12x17" baking sheet or pan with a silicone mat if you have one, or use parchment paper (if using parchment paper coat with a light layer of butter).
For the brittle: 3. Melt the butter over medium heat in a 3-qt heavy-duty saucepan (need to have straight sides and taller than wide). Stir occasionally with a wooden spoon as the butter melts.
4. Once melted, add the water, sugar, salt (if not using the Blue Diamond lightly salted almonds) and corn syrup. Stir constantly until the sugar dissolves, then brush down the sides of the pan with a pastry brush moistened with water.
5. Attach a candy thermometer to the side of the pan, do not let it touch the bottom of the pan (this is the reason for a taller but not too big in diameter pan). Stir as the mixture comes to a boil. Once it starts boiling, stop stirring.
6. Rapid bubbles and a slightly darker color forms around the 235 F mark.
7. At 265 F (hard ball stage), stir in the cut in half almonds. (If the mixture separates when you add the nuts, remove from heat, take off the thermometer, and stir vigorously until it comes back together). Reattach the thermometer.

8. Cook and stir the candy until it reaches 290 F (soft crack stage). 9. Turn off the stove, remove pan from heat and pour the toffee out onto the parchment
paper in the pan. Smooth until you have an even layer. Toffee should be thick enough not to run all the way to the edge of the pan. Allow it to cool for 5 minutes. 10. Sprinkle the chocolate pieces across the top and allow to soften (takes about 1+ minute), then spread it into an even layer. Sprinkle with the ? cup of chopped almonds and press them in a bit to adhere them. 11. Refrigerate the toffee for about 20 minutes to set the chocolate. Once set, slice into pieces with a sharp knife or break into small pieces. NOTE: This time I used a wide-bottomed pan so my mixture wasn't very high up and got pretty dark before I realized it was at the stage I needed to take it off. It was still very delicious!
