Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 40 pieces saltine crackers
- 1 cup unsalted butter
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
- optional toppings (e.g., chopped nuts, sea salt)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a standard baking sheet with aluminum foil. Spray the foil with nonstick cooking spray for easy cleanup.
Arrange the saltine crackers in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, covering it completely.
In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Once fully melted, add the brown sugar and stir until combined. Bring the mixture to a gentle boil, stirring frequently, and let it simmer for 3-4 minutes until it thickens slightly.
Carefully pour the hot toffee mixture over the saltine crackers, spreading it evenly with a spatula to make sure all crackers are coated.
Bake in the preheated oven for 5-7 minutes, or until the toffee mixture is bubbling. Keep a close eye to ensure it doesn’t burn.
Remove the baking sheet from the oven and immediately sprinkle the chocolate chips evenly over the hot toffee. Let the chocolate sit for 1-2 minutes to soften, then use a spatula or offset knife to spread the melted chocolate into an even layer.
If desired, sprinkle toppings like chopped nuts or a pinch of sea salt over the melted chocolate for extra flavor and texture.
Refrigerate or let the tray sit at room temperature until the chocolate sets completely (about 1-2 hours).
Once fully set, break the toffee crackers into pieces and serve. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week.
