Step 1

Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.

Sprinkle 1/2 the chocolate and 1/2 the almonds onto the prepared baking sheet.

Step 3

Melt sugar and butter together in a stainless steel pan over low heat; increase heat to medium, stirring constantly, until boiling. Heat mixture to 310 degrees F (155 degrees C) or until a small amount of syrup dropped into cold water forms hard, brittle threads, 30 minutes to 1 hour.
