Steps:
- Position rack in center of oven and preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
- Spread nuts on a baking tray and bake until toasted, 10 to 15 minutes, turning nuts after 7 to 8 minutes to ensure even toasting. Cool and chop coarsely. You should have about 2 cups. Set aside. Clean baking tray and coat with vegetable oil or vegetable oil spray. Spray both sides of the offset spatula with vegetable oil spray. Set aside.
- Make the toffee: Place sugar in a small deep saucepan. Add the corn syrup and water or rum and, over medium heat, bring to a boil. Let boil until large bubbles form on the surface, 3 to 4 minutes. Cover with foil and boil 5 minutes longer.
- Add the pieces of butter and continue cooking, uncovered, over medium heat until temperature reaches 300 degrees F on a candy thermometer, about 30 minutes. (The candy thermometer has a clip on the side that can be slid up or down. If desired, you can fit the thermometer on the side of the pan, making sure that it rests in the mixture, not on the bottom of the pan, so that the reading is accurate.) Remove from heat and immediately add the salt, baking soda, and 1 cup of chopped nuts. Stir with a wooden spoon until well combined.
- Pour the toffee mixture on the oiled baking tray and, using the offset spatula, spread the mixture out, making a block about 10 by 13 inches. The toffee will thicken very quickly, so work as fast as you can. When cool, blot some of the oil or vegetable spray with a clean towel.
- While the toffee mixture is cooling, melt the chocolate in a medium heatproof bowl placed over simmering water. When almost melted, turn off heat and let the chocolate continue to melt, stirring occasionally. Keep warm.
- When you can lift up the block of toffee, transfer it to a flat work surface or to a clean baking tray. Pour the melted chocolate over the toffee, spreading to cover the entire surface and, before the chocolate cools, sprinkle with the remaining chopped nuts. If the chocolate takes a long time to harden, refrigerate for about 10 minutes to set the chocolate.
- Return the block of toffee to the work surface and break up into pieces approximately 1 to 1 1/2 inches wide. Then cut into smaller pieces, as desired. Use as needed.

Steps:
- 1. Spread crackers touching each other in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet. OK to break some in order to completely fill the baking sheet.
- 2. Melt butter and sugar together in saucepan on medium-high heat until mixture comes to a full-rolling boil. Lower heat to medium and continue to cook for 3 more minutes, stirring occasionally.
- 3. Remove from heat and stir in vanilla. Stir in almonds. Pour mixture evenly over crackers. Caramel will even out completely as it bakes. Bake at 350 for about 7-8 minutes or until it looks "dry". Check often to make sure that the crackers on the edges don't burn. Cool and break apart.

ALMOND TOFFEE
A friend Susan Butters gave me this recipe in 1986. When Susan was in High School the owner of a well-known candy store demonstrated this recipe in the Home Economics class. Susan noted the ingredients and has been making this candy for years. I admit that I have made it several times, perfectly. Other times it is edible, but I have had various problems with it turning out just right. It is a VERY GOOD candy and friends and relatives look foreward to a box for special occasions.

Steps:
- Using a heavy cooking pot, add the sugar and water, and without stirring, bring the mixture to a temperature of 230*.
- On an electric stove the burner is kept on high the entire time. (When I make it on a gas stove I also keep the burner on high flame.).
- When the temperature reaches 230* add the butter, 1 stick at a time, stirring constantly in a figure 8 until each is melted.
- Add 2 cups of whole raw almonds and continue cooking until the mixture is a caramel color.
- Pour onto a buttered cookie sheet (NO NOT scrape the pot!) and immediately set on packed snow, or float in ice water to cool.(If there was no snow, Susan added water and lots of ice to the bathtub.).
- Melt the 2 chocolate bars in a microwave. Grind the 1 1/3 cup raw almonds fine or put them in a blender.
- After the candy has cooled, spread with the chocolate, and dust heavily with the ground almonds. Turn over and repeat on the other side. Let stand for a few hours to 'set'. Break into pieces and ENJOY!
- I have no idea how many servings this would be called -- .

Tips:
- Use a candy thermometer to ensure the toffee reaches the correct temperature. This will prevent it from becoming too hard or too soft.
- If you don't have a candy thermometer, you can test the toffee by dropping a small amount into a glass of cold water. If it forms a hard ball, it is ready.
- Be careful not to overcook the toffee, as this will make it tough and chewy.
- When spreading the toffee onto the baking sheet, work quickly so that it doesn't start to set.
- Use a sharp knife to cut the toffee into pieces. This will prevent it from crumbling.
- Store the toffee in an airtight container at room temperature for up to two weeks.
