Ingredients

2 1/2 cups evaporated milk (not sweetened condensed)

1 1/2 Lbs best-quality bittersweet chocolate, chopped

1/4 cup amaretto liqueur

2 teaspoons vanilla

1/4 cup unsalted butter or stick margarine, cut into pieces

1 cup almonds, sliced and toasted

Directions

Line a loaf pan with plastic wrap or parchment.

Place evaporated milk in a saucepan, heat just until small bubbles rise around the edges. Remove from heat.

Add chopped bittersweet chocolate, stirring until completely melted and smooth.

Add amaretto, vanilla, and butter to the melted chocolate mixture, stirring until combined.

Place toasted almonds in a separate bowl and cover with about 1/3 of the melted chocolate mixture.

Press into the bottom of the loaf pan and refrigerate about 30 minutes.

Pour remaining melted chocolate mixture (warm slightly in microwave if necessary) on top of the chilled almond layer.

Refrigerate at least 12 (I reccomend 24) hours to firm and let flavours meld.
