ALMOND BRICKLE- EASY



Almond Brickle- Easy image

Yummy! This is my all-time favorite homemade candy. I love the combination of buttery toffee with nuts and chocolate! It's REALLY EASY to make- you don't even need a candy thermometer for this one. Sometimes I use pecans instead of almonds and I love it that way, too. Feel free to substitute your favorite nut for the almonds- just chop them up small.

Time 7m

Yield 1 pan, 1 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 cup butter
1 1/2 cups light brown sugar, firmly packed
2 cups slivered almonds
1 (12 ounce) package semi-sweet chocolate chips

Steps:

  • Cook butter and sugar in a skillet over medium heat until sugar has completely melted, about 2 or 3 minutes, stirring constantly.
  • Add almonds and continue cooking and stirring for another 2 or 3 minutes, just until the almonds begin to brown around the edges.
  • Pour mixture into a well greased (butter) 13x9 pan.
  • Sprinkle the chocolate chips evenly over hot mixture. Wait a minute or two until they are soft and melting and spread them evenly over the top. Chill until firm, break into pieces and hide it from everyone so you can have it all for you!
  • NOTE: This stuff is really good broken up as a topping for homemade vanilla ice cream and on top of cakes or in the filling between layers.

Tips:

  • Chill the dough before baking: This will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
  • Use a cookie scoop to measure out the dough: This will help ensure that all of the cookies are the same size and shape.
  • Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing can make the cookies tough.
  • Bake the cookies until they are just set: Overbaking will make them dry and crumbly.
  • Let the cookies cool completely before frosting them: This will help the frosting set properly.

Conclusion:

These almond brickle sugar cookies are a delicious and festive treat that is perfect for any occasion. They are easy to make and can be decorated in a variety of ways. Whether you are a seasoned baker or a beginner, you are sure to enjoy these cookies.
