dissolved. Cover pan and bring to a boil. Leave cover on until
condensation washes down insides of pan. Turn heat to medium and

registers 320' on a candy thermometer. Quickly stir in almonds, and
pour mixture onto prepared baking sheet. Spread with back of a metal
spoon until thin. Allow to cool completely, and break into pieces,
reserving some larger ones for garnish.
