- 2 sticks of Grassland salted butter
- 1 cup granulated sugar

- 1/8 teaspoon cream of tartar
- 1/2 cup blanched slivered almonds

Heat the butter, sugar, water, and cream of tartar in a heavy skillet over high heat to the bubbling stage. Stir constantly until mixture pulls away from the skillet and is a light tan color.
Pour mixture onto a cookie sheet, and add blanched almonds.
Add a large chocolate bar on top of mixture. Spread chocolate on top of mixture until it melts and covers.
Sprinkle with pecans or walnuts and cool.
