How to Make Almond Roca English Toffee

1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
2. Butter a 12 x 17-inch jelly roll pan.
3. Spread 2 cups of sliced almonds evenly across the prepared pan.
4. In a large saucepan, combine 1 cup granulated sugar, 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, and 1/4 cup water.
5. Cook over medium-high heat, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon, until the mixture reaches a light amber color (around 300°F on a candy thermometer). This will take approximately 5-7 minutes. The mixture will become foamy and thickened, and will be past the initial tan stage.
6. Immediately pour the hot toffee mixture evenly over the almonds, spreading it as thinly and evenly as possible.
7. Sprinkle 1 cup of semi-sweet chocolate chips over the hot toffee.
8. Let the chocolate sit for 1-2 minutes to soften slightly, then spread it evenly over the toffee with a spatula or knife.
9. Let the toffee cool completely at room temperature until the chocolate is firm. This will take about 30-45 minutes.
10. Once completely cool, break the toffee into pieces.
