English Toffee

Place in heavy saucepan:

1 c. white sugar
1 c. butter
1 c. almonds, chopped or slivered

Cook mixture, stirring often until it becomes tan in color. Be careful here, too little cooking will make it sugary and too much will taste turned. When tan color has reached hard cracked stage - 300° - spread thin on cookie sheet. \
While candy is hot, place 3 Hershey bars on top and spread as they melt - like frosting.
Over this, spread 1 cup finely chopped pecans. Press down so they stay when candy cools.
Break into pieces. Some butter will separate during cooking and make an oily deposit on top. Pour it out and soak up excess with paper towels.
