Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 40 pieces Saltine crackers
- 1 cup Unsalted butter
- 1 cup Brown sugar
- 1.5 cups Semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 0.5 cup Optional toppings (e.g., chopped nuts, sprinkles, or sea salt)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a rimmed baking sheet (approximately 9x13 inches) with parchment paper or foil, and lightly spray it with non-stick cooking spray.
Arrange the saltine crackers in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, covering the entire surface. Set aside.
In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the brown sugar and stir continuously until the mixture begins to boil. Let it boil for 3–4 minutes, stirring constantly, until it becomes thickened and syrupy.
Carefully pour the toffee mixture over the arranged saltine crackers, spreading it evenly with a spatula to ensure all crackers are coated.
Bake the toffee-covered crackers in the preheated oven for 7–8 minutes, or until the toffee is bubbling and slightly darkened in color.
Remove the baking sheet from the oven and immediately sprinkle the chocolate chips over the hot toffee. Let sit for 2–3 minutes to allow the chocolate chips to soften, then use a spatula or knife to spread the melted chocolate evenly across the surface.
While the chocolate is still warm, sprinkle your choice of toppings (e.g., chopped nuts, sprinkles, or a light dusting of sea salt) over the top.
Let the toffee cookie bites cool completely at room temperature, or place the baking sheet in the refrigerator to speed up the cooling process.
Once the toffee and chocolate have fully set, break or cut the treat into bite-sized pieces. Serve and enjoy!
