  1. Line a 9x13 inch (23x33 centimeter) rimmed baking sheet with parchment.
  2. In a large pot, place the butter, sugar, water, corn syrup, and salt over medium low heat.
  3. Cook, stirring often- especially the bottom and sides, until the butter melts and the temperature reaches 295-300˚F (146-149˚C).

  5. Pour the toffee onto the prepared baking sheet in an even layer. Allow to rest for 2 minutes.
  6. Evenly sprinkle the chopped chocolate or chocolate chips over the toffee and cover with a tented piece of foil. Allow to rest for another 2 minutes until starting to melt.
  7. Use a spatula to carefully and evenly spread the melted chocolate over the toffee.
  8. Sprinkle evenly with the chopped almonds and sprinkles if desired.
  9. Chill for 2 hours in the refrigerator or overnight at room temperature (in low humidity) until set, then break into pieces to serve.
