Description
This candy tastes wonderful and takes about 15 minutes to make. My sister and I did three batches in an hour one year for Christmas. I use a cast iron skillet and some times just a few of the almonds to help gauge the readiness.
Ingredients
- 1 cup butter
- 1 ¼ cups white sugar
- 2 tablespoons water
- ¼ cup slivered almonds
- 1 cup chocolate chips
Instructions
- Butter a 10×15 inch jellyroll pan.

- Immediately sprinkle the chocolate chips on top. Let stand for a minute
- then spread the chocolate over the top. Let cool completely
