ingredients
2 1/4 cups sugar
1 cup water
1 pound butter, not oleo or margarine
2 cups sliced or slivered almonds
1 package (6 ounce size) semisweet chocolate chips
directions
Put sugar into a medium sauce pan and pour water over. Do not stir. Cover loosely. Cook 6 minutes. Add butter one stick at a time and stir each until completely melted.
As soon as the last stick is melted, add the two cups of almonds and stir continuously until the mixture turns a rich auburn color. You will think you are burning it but cook till auburn.
Pour into two cookie sheets and spread as thin as possible. While hot, pour melted chocolate chips and spread over entire top surface. Let cool two or three hours and break. Store in zip lock bags.

This recipe came out awesome! If you follow the directions PRECISELY, as I did, you will be ecstatic with the results! And you DON'T need a candy thermometer!I have had difficulty in the past with making candy, and getting it to harden, but this worked beautifully! It takes some patience, ( about 10-15 minutes of constant stirring), but the end result is well worth it. Try it!
