In a heavy-bottomed saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter completely.

Immediately pour the hot mixture onto the prepared baking sheet and spread evenly with a spatula.
Sprinkle chocolate chips over the hot toffee and let sit for 1–2 minutes until melted.
Spread the melted chocolate evenly over the surface with a spatula.
Top with chopped almonds and gently press them into the chocolate.
Let the toffee cool completely at room temperature or refrigerate until set.
