Saltine Cracker Toffee

Ingredients

Method

1. 1

   Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and arrange the saltine crackers in a single layer on the sheet.

2. 2

   In a saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the brown sugar and stir until it is dissolved, and the mixture is smooth. Bring the mixture to a boil and let it boil for 3-4 minutes, stirring constantly.

3. 3

   Once the sugar mixture has thickened and caramelized slightly, pour it evenly over the saltine crackers. Use a spatula to spread it out if needed.

4. 4

   Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the toffee becomes bubbly and the edges are golden brown.

5. 5

   Remove the baking sheet from the oven and immediately sprinkle the chocolate chips over the hot toffee. Let them sit for a minute or two to soften, then use a spatula to spread the melted chocolate evenly over the toffee.

6. 6

   If desired, sprinkle chopped nuts over the melted chocolate.

7. 7

   Allow the Saltine Cracker Toffee to cool completely at room temperature for about 1 hour, or until the chocolate has hardened.

8. 8

   Once the Saltine Cracker Toffee is completely cooled and set, break it into pieces.
