Share on Twitter3/4 cup vegetable margarine
1 cup brown sugar
3/4 cup chopped almonds
4 oz dark chocolate, grated fine
Line an 8-inch square baking dish with foil, and oil the foil. Put the margarine and sugar in a 2-quart glass measure or microwave-safe bowl. Microwave uncovered on high for 3 minutes. Beat with a whisk until smooth. Microwave uncovered on high for 4 more minutes. Stir in 1/2 cup of the almonds and microwave uncovered on high for about 3 minutes more, or until the mixture thickens and forms a firm ball when tested in cold water. Watch carefully the last 2 to 3 minutes because the sugar may try to burn. Whisk for a few seconds, then pour mixture into your oiled pan. Sprinkle with the grated chocolate, cover with plastic wrap, and let chocolate melt for about 5 minutes. Spread the melted chocolate evenly over the toffee and sprinkle with the reserved 1/4 cup almonds. Let chocolate harden in a cool place. Remove foil and break into pieces. Enjoy!
