Steps:
- 1. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line a 9-by-13-inch baking pan with parchment.
- 2. Prepare the crust. In a large bowl, with an electric mixer, beat together the butter and sugar on medium speed until light, about 2 minutes. Beat in the egg yolk, vanilla, and salt. On low speed, gradually beat in the flour just until mixed. The dough will be stiff. Pat the dough evenly over the bottom of the baking pan.
- 3. Bake in the center of the oven until pale gold on top, about 20 minutes.
- 4. Remove the pan from the oven and scatter the chocolate pieces evenly over the crust. Return the pan to the oven for 1 minute. Remove the pan again and, using a knife, spread the chocolate evenly over the crust. Sprinkle evenly with the almonds.
- 5. Let cool completely in the pan on a wire rack. Using a sharp knife, cut into small squares, then carefully remove from the pan with a small offset spatula or an icing spatula.

Steps:
- Crust: Preheat oven to 350°F Cream crust ingredients together. Press firmly into greased 9" square pan. Bake for 10-15 minutes or until golden. Let cool while preparing filling.
- Centre: In a medium saucepan, heat sweetened condensed milk and butter over low heat for 5-10 minutes or until slightly thickened. Stir constantly to prevent burning. Spread over crust. Bake 12-15 minutes or just until golden.
- Top: Sprinkle chips evenly over the filling. Bake 2 minutes, remove from oven and spread with spatula. Sprinkle toffee bits (adjust quantity to your liking) and press lightly into the melted chocolate. Cool in refrigerator.
Tips:
- Use a heavy-bottomed saucepan for making the toffee to prevent burning.
- Make sure the sugar and butter are completely melted and combined before adding the condensed milk.
- Stir the toffee constantly while it is cooking to prevent it from sticking to the pan.
- Pour the toffee onto a greased baking sheet and allow it to cool completely before cutting it into squares.
- For a richer flavor, use dark chocolate instead of milk chocolate.
- If you want a crunchier toffee, add some chopped nuts or seeds before pouring it onto the baking sheet.
- Store the toffee squares in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 weeks.
