Yes, it's this time of year again (though I now have requests for this pretty much all year round!) and I need to make some Homemade Almond Roca. This is pretty much always a hit and I take it pretty much everywhere during the holidays.
1 cup of butter (margarine is not the same!)
3/4 cup of brown sugar
1 package of (whole) graham wafers
1 cup of slivered almonds
1 cup of chocolate chips
Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
Lay graham wafers on a cookie sheet - do not overlap.
Sprinkle almonds on top of the graham wafers.
In a saucepan, melt the butter.
Add the brown sugar and bring this to a boil.
Once it boils, pour it over the graham wafers and almonds.
Put it in the oven for 6-8minutes until just brown.
Take it out of the oven and sprinkle the chocolate chips on top.
Leave for a minute and run a fork through them.
Refrigerate and break into pieces when cold.
Enjoy it because it won't last long!
Cheers,
