Notes
Swap almonds with peanuts or pecans, or go nut-free by using crushed pretzels. No corn syrup? Use honey; simmer gently to avoid crystallizing. Try white or dark chocolate, or swirl both. Want extra chew? Fold in 1 cup mini marshmallows with the toffee bits. Store covered at room temp up to 3 days.
