    Almond Brittle


    List of Ingredients

    1 cup water
    2 cups sugar
    1 cup light corn syrup
    2 cups unblanched sliced almonds
    1 teaspoons salt
    2 tablespoons butter
    1 teaspoon vanilla extract
    1/4 tsp baking soda

    Directions
    Bring the water to a boil in a large, heavy saucepan over moderate heat. Stir in the sugar and corn syrup until dissolved.

    Cook to the hard-ball stage and add the almonds and salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, to the hard-crack stage.


    Remove from the heat and stir in the butter, vanilla, and baking soda. Pour the mixture onto a well buttered slab or baking sheet and spread it out with a spatula, making it as thin as possible while it is still hot.

    Cool to room temperature and break into pieces. Store in an airtight container.
