Butter Almond Crunch
Sounded easy so I'm going to try making this for Christmas gift giving along with my favorite Divinity Fudge. The Pineapple Fudge was a hit last year.
Ingredients:
- 3/4 cup sliced almonds
- 3/4 cup shredded sweetened coconut
- 1/2 cup butter or margarine (1 stick)
- 1 -1/2 cups sugar
- 3 Tbsp. water
- 1 Tbsp. light corn syrup
- 1/2 tsp. salt
Directions:
Combine almonds and coconut. Spread in thin layer over bottom
of buttered 13 X 9 inch pan.
In sauce pan, melt butter, then blend in remaining ingredients. Cook, without stirring, until mixture reaches soft crack stage (290 degrees F)
Remove from heat and pour in a thin stream evenly over almonds and coconut.
Cool, then break into pieces. Store in an air-tight container.
Servings:
Makes about 1 pound of candy.
