Instructions
- Position a rack in the center of your oven. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees (F).
- Lightly brush the bottom of a large rimmed baking sheet with vegetable oil. Lightly grease both sides of an offset spatula with vegetable oil. Set aside until needed.
- Place almonds on a separate baking sheet and bake for 8 to 10 minutes, tossing halfway, until almonds are lightly golden (you don’t want dark brown spots). Cool for 10 minutes. Transfer nuts to a cutting board and roughly chop. Set aside until needed.
- In a medium-sized deep saucepan, combine the butter, salt, rum, water, sugars, and corn syrup.
- Cook over medium-heat, stirring occasionally, until the butter has completely melted. Increase the heat to medium-high and continue cooking, without stirring, until the mixture registers 300 degrees (F) on a candy thermometer.
- Remove from heat and immediately stir in the baking soda and 1 and ¼ cups of the chopped almonds, stirring with silicone spatula until well combined.
- Immediately pour the toffee onto the prepared baking sheet and, using the prepared offset spatula, spread it into a 10x12 inch rectangle.
- While the toffee is hot, sprinkle the chocolate chips over it in an even layer. Allow the chocolate to sit for 2 minutes. Then, using a small offset spatula, spread the chocolate over the toffee, covering it completely.
- Sprinkle with remaining chopped almonds and flaky sea salt, if using.
- Refrigerate for 1 hour, then let stand at room temperature until chocolate is completely set. Holding the toffee with a piece of wax paper, break it into rough pieces. Store in an airtight container, in the refrigerator, for up to 1 week.
