My brother Cecil Reccomended this recipe to me, and I must say, it truly is a gem. The crunchy almonds give it this amazing texture that makes my teeth tingle with joy. Make this recipe, give some brittle to your friends, and they will tingle with joy as well.
My dog always loved this Brittle, his tail would wag like crazy every time we make it. unfortunately it always made him sick and he would vomit all over our carpet but it still made him happy. Rest in peace Butterball you will be missed.

My husband and I loved this brittle! It reminds you of the cinnamon almonds for sale at local fairs - delicious!
The cinnamon is a great addition to this brittle. I found three cups of almonds was too much. There wasn't enough brittle to go around the nuts. Tried again with 2 cups of almonds and it was perfect. I made this for a bazaar for two years now and I've gotten great reviews.
