Ingredients

  • Unsalted butter, room temperature, for baking sheet
  • 1 1/2 cups sugar
  • 1/2 cup light corn syrup
  • 2 cups finely chopped blanched almonds (about 9 ounces)
  • Vegetable oil, for spatula

Directions

Brush a 9-by-13-inch rimmed baking sheet with butter; set aside. Combine sugar and corn syrup in a saucepan. Bring to a boil, stirring until sugar has dissolved. Using a pastry brush dipped in water, brush away any sugar crystals on side of pan to prevent recrystallization. Cook, swirling occasionally, until mixture reaches soft-ball stage on a candy thermometer (238 degrees).

Stir in almonds; cook, stirring occasionally, until mixture is light amber in color.

Pour mixture onto prepared baking sheet; spread quickly into a 1/4-inch-thick layer with an oiled metal spatula. Let sit 2 minutes before cutting, if desired, with a sharp, oiled knife. (Or let cool completely before breaking into pieces.) Set sheet aside until completely cool. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 month.
