Instructions
Line your baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
In a medium saucepan, combine sugar, butter, corn syrup, and water. Heat over medium, stirring until butter melts.
Once it begins to boil, insert candy thermometer and stop stirring. Cook until mixture reaches 300°F (hard crack stage).
Remove from heat and quickly stir in baking soda, white miso paste, and sea salt until smooth.
Immediately pour onto baking sheet and spread evenly.
Sprinkle chopped almonds on top, pressing lightly. Let sit for 5 minutes.
Top with chopped dark chocolate, let melt for 1 minute, then spread evenly.
Allow to cool completely at room temperature.
Break into pieces and enjoy or store in an airtight container.
