This classic toffee is buttery and rich, and pairs very well with dark chocolate. For easily printable instructions, please refer to the English Toffee recipe.

Begin by assembling your ingredients:

• 3/4 cup almonds, toasted and chopped
• 1 pound of dark chocolate
• 2 cups (1 pound) butter
• 2-2/3 cups granulated sugar
• 1/3 cup water
• 1/4 cup light corn syrup

You will also need a large baking sheet with 1" sides, covered with foil and sprayed with nonstick cooking spray.
