Instructions
-
Oil a 9-by-13-inch baking sheet, and set aside. Combine sugar and 2 tablespoons water in a heavy-bottomed saucepan. Cook over low heat until sugar is dissolved. Cover pan, and bring to a boil. Leave cover on until condensation washes down insides of pan. Turn heat to medium and cook, swirling pan occasionally, until sugar turns amber in color and registers 320 degrees F on a candy thermometer. Quickly stir in almonds, and pour mixture onto prepared baking sheet. Spread with back of a metal spoon until thin. Allow to cool completely, and break into pieces, reserving some larger ones for garnish.
