Easy Butter Toffee

Directions

1. 1
   Rub the top of a microwavable mixing bowl with (extra) butter. Place butter into bowl. Pour sugar directly on butter. Add salt and water.
2. 2
   Cook approximately 7-8 minutes (sometimes I have seen some microwaves take up to 12 minutes). Start watching at this point so as not to overcook. Candy is done when it's the color of a Heath bar or brown sugar.
3. 3
   Pour mixture over sliced almonds on a buttered cookie sheet. Don't scrape the bowl! Cool!
4. 4
   Top with melted chocolate (and more almonds if you wish) and let cool some more.
5. 5
   Break into pieces and serve. (I use a regular table knife -- just be sure not to cut into your cookie sheet!) Enjoy!
