This recipe works great. I covered the pan with chopped toasted almonds before pouring the toffee about 1/4 inch thick. It was just like almond roca.

I was surprised. This is the first toffee recipe I've made which actually turned out perfect for me. The difference in the this recipe from the others I've tried is vinegar and admittedly I was hesitant to try the recipe because of it. But you don't taste it in the end product at all. Wonderful recipe. Thanks.
