Been checking out Keith's (Bassman) recipe for a while on Almond Toffee. I decided to go for it, but instead use Peanuts. I must say, although I do not make a lot of sweet stuff, this is probably the best sweet stuff I have ever made... Tastes like "Peanut Roca" to me...... Fantastic Keith! Thanks for sharing the recipe.... OH YEAH... It's SUPER EASY & QUICK!
A lot of you may already have the stuff at home to make this, but if you don't, pick it up..... Then on that night that you don't have any sweet desert to snack on.... mix this up....
I will post Keith's recipe below in quotations. (I cut the recipe in 1/2 & used peanuts & did not use the Chocolate chips, should have doubled it )
If I missed something Keith, please feel free to let me know & I will include it.
Bassman's Almond Toffee
2 Cups Real Butter
2 Cups Sugar
2 Cups Sliced Almonds
6 Tbsp Water
2 Tbsn Corn Syrup
1/2 Tsp Vanilla
Chocolate Chips for coating
"Melt butter, add sugar, blend in Almonds, water, syrup and vanilla. Cook to 300 degrees. Spreand onto buttered cookie sheet (LARGE). When cooled, wipe top with paper towel to remove butter. Melt chocolate and spread over top. I sprinkle ground almonds over top of chocolate (whirled in food processor). Break in pieces. Just to add to the original recipe, after the chocolate cools, I turn it over and spread chocolate on the opposite side also. Then break into pieces".
Melted Butter, then ingredients added as noted & starting to bring up heat.
Bringing to a boil, then up to 300*, stirring constantly.
Poured out onto cookie/pizza sheet
Cover with crushed Peanuts
Let cool, then break into pieces.... Oh Yeah!
