[COLOR="Red"]Almond Roca-
1 cup butter
1 cup sugar or granulated splenda
3 tablespoons water
1 teaspoon light corn syrup
1 cup finely chopped toasted almonds
1 cup milk chocolate chips
Melt butter in a saucepan.
Add sugar, water, and corn syrup.
Cook mixture over medium heat, stirring.
When the sugar dissolves and the mixture begins to boil raise heat and bring mixture to 290 degrees on a cooking thermometer. It will be light brown in color and syrup will separate into threads that are not brittle when dribbled into cold water.
Quickly stir in 1/2 cup chopped almonds.
Immediately pour mixture onto an ungreased baking sheet.
Wait 2-3 minutes for candy surface to firm then sprinkle on the chocolate chips.
In a few minutes, when chips have softened, spread chocolate evenly over surface. Sprinkle remaining almonds over melted chocolate.
When chocolate hardens crack candy into pieces and store in a covered container.[/COLOR]
