Method

Toast the almonds in the oven until pale golden, about 5 mins.
Chop glace fruit in fairly small pieces and cover with brandy for at least an hour.
Line a 30 x 25cm Swiss roll tin with oiled foil Spread the tray evenly with the almonds.
Place the Chelsea Caster Sugar, water and butter into a saucepan and stir over low heat until melted. Boil uncovered for about 10 mins until mixture is golden brown. Test a drop in a cup of cold water, when it turns hard it is ready.
Pour the toffee quickly over the almonds, using an oiled spatula to spread evenly. Press the fruit into the toffee, working quickly, before the toffee sets too hard. Lift out of the tin, and slice into small squares with a well oiled knife.
Melt the chopped chocolate and butter in the top of a double boil, allow to cool slightly.
Dip some of the biscuits into the melted chocolate so they have a thin coating. Allow to set on a cake rack. Leave some of the biscuits just with toffee.
