WALNUT BUTTER CRUNCH

2 cups margarine
2 cups sugar
1/4 cup water
2 T light corn syrup
2 cups chopped walnuts (coarse)
1 pkg. choc chips (6 oz.)
1/2 cup finely chopped walnuts

Melt margarine over low heat in 2-quart saucepan.  Add sugar.  Stir constantly until sugar is melted.  Add water and corn syrup.  Continue cooking over low heat until thermometer registers 290 F.  Remove from heat.  Stir in coarsely chopped nuts.  Spread in a greased jelly-roll pan, 15" x 10" x 1".  Cool until hardened.  Melt chocolate over hot water and spread on crunch.  Sprinkle with finely chopped nuts.  Break into pieces.

This is pretty good.  It's always a hot job standing over a hot pot stirring constantly until it reaches 290, but it tastes pretty good.
