Steps:
- Gather the ingredients.
- Prepare a 4 x 8-inch loaf pan by lining it with aluminum foil and spraying the foil with nonstick cooking spray.
- In a small saucepan over medium-high heat, melt the butter. Add the brown sugar, the corn syrup, and the salt. Stir until the brown sugar dissolves.
- Once the brown sugar melts, start your timer and cook the candy for exactly 6 minutes, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon. If you want to use a candy thermometer , stir and boil the toffee until it reaches 290 F/143 C.
- After 6 minutes, pull the toffee pan from the heat and stir in 1/2 cup of the chopped toasted almonds. Scrape the toffee into the prepared loaf pan-it should be in a layer about 1/2-inch thick.
- Let the toffee set for about 3 minutes, then use a pizza cutter or paring knife to cut the toffee into thin bars about 1/2-inch wide x 2.5-inches long. These will look like small pieces, but once they are dipped in chocolate and rolled in nuts, they'll be substantially bigger. After another 2 minutes, go over your cuts again as the toffee continues to harden.
- As you wait for your toffee to set, chop the remaining 1 cup of toasted almonds very finely. Alternatively, put them in a food processor and pulse for several seconds until they are in very small pieces. Pour the finely chopped almonds into a shallow bowl.
- Once the toffee is completely cool and set, break it into pieces along the lines you made, and trim off any jagged edges with a knife.
- Melt the chocolate or candy coating. Dip each piece of almond buttercrunch in the melted chocolate, then place it in the bowl of nuts. Roll it around until it is coated with nuts on all sides. Take it out with a fork and place it on a baking sheet. Repeat until all the toffee pieces are coated with chocolate and nuts.
- Refrigerate the tray for about 10 minutes to set the chocolate. Bring to room temperature, then serve and enjoy.

Steps:
- Cover a rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil and smooth out any wrinkles. Use extra butter (or even just the butter wrappers) to coat the foil well.
- Place butter and sugar in a very heavy bottomed sauté pan. (We like to use a 10-inch cast-iron.) Begin melting butter over medium heat, stirring butter and sugar together very gently at this stage to encourage them to combine, but do not stir vigorously.
- Once the butter and sugar are combined and melted, attach a candy thermometer to the side of the pan and boil over medium-high heat. Occasionally draw a wooden spoon through the mixture to make sure it is heating evenly. When the mixture is approaching 250° F, combine the baking soda and vanilla in a small bowl and keep near the stove. Bring toffee to 305° F (hard crack stage). Immediately slide over to a cold burner, add soda/vanilla and quickly stir them in with a wooden spoon. Immediately pour mixture out onto prepared pan. Most, if not all, will come out of the pan. Do not scrape the pan bottom. The toffee should pool into a large oval shape. Use an offset spatula if necessary to create an even layer, about ¼-inch thick. Don't worry about uneven edges. Place pan on rack to cool completely.
- Melt the chocolate in microwave or top of double boiler. Have nuts ready to use in a bowl on your work surface. Loosen the toffee from the foil in one big piece and then just lay it back down (you are just un-attaching it from the foil). Pour half of the chocolate on top of the toffee and spread in an even layer with an offset spatula. Immediately sprinkle half of the almonds evenly over the wet chocolate, patting gently with your fingertips to help them adhere. Refrigerate until completely set. Flip toffee over on foil and repeat with chocolate and nuts on second side of toffee. Chill again. Once it is completely chilled you may break it up into slabs. Refrigerate in an airtight container until serving time, up to 1 week.
