Use a heavy-bottomed saucepan to prevent scorching. A candy thermometer is crucial for achieving the correct toffee texture. Accuracy is key! Toasting the almonds enhances their flavor and adds a delightful crunch. For a richer flavor, use dark chocolate chips instead of semi-sweet. Be extremely careful when working with hot toffee, as it can cause severe burns.
