--------  ------------  --------------------------------
   3      C             Blanched Almonds -- sliced
  14      Oz            Semisweet, Bittersweet, Or White Chocolate -- cut-up
     3/4  C             Heavy Cream
   1      Tbsp          Corn Syrup

1. Preheat oven to 325°F. Spread out almonds on a baking sheet and toast 
in oven 7 to 10 mins, until light brown.
2. In a medium saucepan, over medium-low heat, heat together chocolate and 
cream, stirring often, until chocolate is melted and mixture is smooth. 
Remove from heat and stir in corn syrup and toasted almonds.
3. Turn mixture into a wax paper-lined 8-inch square baking pan. 
Refrigerate until firm, several hours or overnight. For ease in cutting, 
turn chilled chocolate square out onto a cutting board, top side up, and 
cut into 50 sticks 1 1/4 x 1 3/4 inch. Store, tightly wrapped, in 
refrigerator.
