- Meanwhile, work on the almond topping. In a medium-sized saucepan, bring sugar, butter, vanilla and milk to a boil.
- Add the slivered almonds and salt and cook on high heat for 5 minutes, until a pale caramel color is achieved.
- Pour almond mixture on top of crust and spread into an even layer.
