Steps

1

Light brown sugar
2

Almonds
3

Heat the sugar and water in a pan to make a syrup, and continue heating until the syrup forms large bubbles.
4

Add the almonds and stir over medium heat. Turn off the heat and continue stirring.
5

The sugar will crystallize and coat the almonds. Reheat and continue stirring without fear.
6

Stir over low heat until the crystals melt and turn caramel-colored. When a faint white smoke appears, turn off the heat.
7

Add butter and a splash of rum for flavor, and mix lightly.
8

While hot, spread the almonds on a heat-resistant silicone sheet or wax paper, and separate them thinly.
9

Be careful not to touch with your hands to avoid burns. Use a small spatula to separate them. Once cooled, they're ready!
