How to Make Mock Almond Roca

Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Arrange crackers in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine 1/2 cup (1 stick) butter and 1 cup granulated sugar. Bring to a rolling boil, stirring constantly, for exactly 3 minutes.
Carefully pour the hot butter-sugar mixture evenly over the crackers.
Bake for 4 minutes, or until the sugar is melted and bubbly.
Remove from oven and immediately sprinkle 1 cup of semi-sweet chocolate chips over the warm crackers. Let stand for 1-2 minutes to allow the chocolate to melt slightly.
Spread the melted chocolate evenly over the crackers using a spatula or knife.
Sprinkle with 1/2 cup chopped almonds (or your favorite nuts).
Let cool completely on the baking sheet before breaking into pieces. Enjoy!
