Serving Size : 25
Categories : Candy
1 cup unblanched whole almonds
1 cup butter (may be half margarine)
1 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1/4 teaspoon salt
12 ounces real milk chocolate pieces
1/2 pound walnuts -- finely ground
On a foiled baking sheet arrange the almonds in a single layer over an
area measuring 12x7""; set aside. In a heavy 2 quart saucepan combine
butter, sugar, vanilla and salt. Cook over high heat, stirring constantly
with a clean, dry wooden spoon until butter is melted. Continue cooking
and stirring for 5-7 min. or until candy is the color of unblanched
almonds. Immediately pour candy without scraping pan, over almonds,
covering all nuts. Cool completely. Meanwhile, in top of double boiler,
melt chocolate over hot (not boiling) water. (or melt chocolate in a heavy
saucepan over low heat, or in a microwave in a 1 cup measure, uncovered,
on 100 percent power for 1-2 min., or until chocolate is soft enough to
stir smooth, stirring every min.) Break toffee into large pieces. Move
top part of double boiler containing chocolate to work surface. Place
ground walnuts in a large bowl near the chocolate. Using a fork, dip each
piece of toffee in the melted chocolate, spreading chocolate over toffee
in a thin, even layer. Scrape off excess with another fork. Using 2 other
forks, coat each piece very lightly with ground walnuts. Place on foil or
waxed paper to set. Break into serving size pieces. Store in a tightly
covered container in refrigerator. Makes 2 pounds.
