An Italian version of peanut brittle-without peanuts! Using almonds instead and they are different and easy to make.

This looks good.. I'm not fond of peanuts but I really like almonds. I will be giving this a try in a couple of weeks. thanks


I like this one


Bookmarked.I tried a similar recipe before with hazelnuts and sessame but it failed.I will be trying this as it looks easy although I think the secret is how do I know on which point the sugar and water are cooked.


That is gorgeous.


I love brittles and make them in a microwave with great success. I'll try using the slivered almonds on my next batch! What a great idea! Thanks so much!


I tried this recipe yesterday, and I was really pleased with the result. After having a disaster the previous day when having a sweetie making day with my girlfriends.. because even though the recipe we used clearly said do not stir unless the recipe states it, my girlfriend couldn't help herself! My advice is stir once before the sugar and water goes on the heat, the do not stir again.. skim off any bubbly scum while it's boiling. Thanks so much, it's great!
