OLD-TIME BUTTER CRUNCH CANDY
Both my children and my grandchildren say the season wouldn't be the same without the big tray of candies and cookies I prepare. This one's the most popular part of that collection. We love the nutty pieces draped in chocolate. -Mildred Duffy, Bella Vista, Arkansas

Steps:
- To make the butter crunch mixture, melt the butter in a saucepan. Remove from heat and stir in sugar, corn syrup, and water. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the mixture reaches 300 degrees on a candy thermometer. Remove from heat, stir in almonds, and pour out into prepared pan, spreading the mixture with the back of a spoon to fill the pan. Before the butter crunch hardens, but when it is firm enough to handle, turn it out onto a large parchment-covered cutting board and peel away the foil. Allow the butter crunch to cool completely. To finish the butter crunch, wipe the top surface of the candy with a damp paper towel to remove excess butter and allow to dry a few minutes. Have another cutting board or the back of a jelly-roll pan ready to turn the candy over onto. Use a small offset metal icing spatula to spread half the tempered chocolate quickly over the butter crunch. Scatter half the chopped almonds over the chocolate. Cover this finished surface with a piece of parchment paper or foil and place another cutting board or the back of a large jelly-roll pan. Remove top board and paper and quickly spread with remaining tempered chocolate and scatter on remaining almonds (it isn't necessary to wipe the second side because it wasn't against a buttered surface). Refrigerate for 20 minutes to set chocolate. Break the butter crunch into 2-inch pieces. Store candy in a tin or plastic container with a tight-fitting cover and keep at a cool room temperature for up to a week.

EASY BUTTERCRUNCH TOFFEE RECIPE | A FARMGIRL'S DABBLES
From afarmgirlsdabbles.com
- This recipe works best when you prep everything first. Line a 15″ x 10″ rimmed pan with foil, extending over the edges. Butter the sides of a heavy-bottomed 2-quart sauce pan with the 1/2 teaspoon of butter. And measure out all ingredients.
- Place sauce pan over medium heat and melt remaining 1-1/2 cups butter. Then stir in sugar, corn syrup, and water with a wooden spoon. Nudge the heat up just a bit (nearly medium-high) and stir fairly constantly, until mixture comes to a boil.
- Clip candy thermometer to the inside of the sauce pan. Stir only occasionally and briefly with a wooden spoon, slowly and evenly, until candy thermometer reaches 305° F - this should take about 15 to 17 minutes. The mixture will change color as it cooks, from very light to deep amber. Watch carefully, especially near the end, as the temperature rises at a faster rate right at the end. Immediately remove sauce pan from heat.
- Pour hot liquid toffee mixture into foil-lined pan. Allow to sit until mixture is stable, but still hot - this should take 2 to 3 minutes.
