So good so easy. Sweet, salty, crunchy and chocolaty.
Ingredients:
1.5 sleves of saltine crackers
1 stick of butter
1 cup of packed brown sugar
2 cups of chocolate chips
Perheat oven to 350 degrees. Perpare a baking sheet by lining it with aluminum foil and spray or butter the foil.
Arrange the crackers in a single layer on the baking sheet so that there is no empty spaces in between them. Crush any remaining crackers into small crumbs and set aside.
Place the butter and brown sugar in a small saucepan over medium high heat. Stir while the butter melts and bring the mixture to a rolling boil. Once boiling, carefully pour the sugar-butter mixture over the crackers if you miss some spots, don't worry as the toffee will spread in the oven.
Bake the toffee crackers at 350 degrees for five minutes, until the toffee is bubbling all over. Carefully remove the pan from the oven and allow to cool for one minute.
Sprinkle the chocolate chips on top of the hot toffee, and allow them to sit for one minute to soften and melt. Once softened, use on offset spatula or knife to spread the melted chocolate over the entire surface of the toffee in an even layer. While the chocolate is still sticky, sprinkle the top with the reserved cracker crumbs or you can substitute with chopped nuts or dried fruit.
Refigerate the pan to set the toffee and chocolate for about 30 minutes. Once set, break into small uneven pieces. Store in airtight container for up to one week.
There is no set path, follow your heart stay the course. |

Yes they are good. I can't leave them alone, told DH that I need to hide them, problem would be, I'll still know where they are. Had no idea they would be this good. If you haven't tried them yet, you need too. Hugs, Brenda

I saw a version of this recipe that uses graham crackers for the base instead of saltines. I've had it both ways--they're both yummy, but I do love graham crackers.

This is a longtime fav with us, too. Teens can make this easily, and impress others greatly! We put slivered almonds on top- and the darkest dark chocolate chips in the baking isle are what we like!

I worked with a retired woman over the summer named Floral who would always bring cookies on Saturdays. She brought these one time and they were fantastic! She said it's always best to serve them near-frozen or very cold so that the chocolate doesn't get really soft. Thanks for the recipe!
