5-ingredient Cracker Toffee

Total Time: 27 mins Preparation Time: 15 mins Cook Time: 12 mins

Ingredients

• 40 saltine crackers (i've used ritz too, and graham crackers too for extra sweet candy. add a pinch of salt over grahams!)
• 1 cup butter (2 sticks, i use salted)
• 1 cup dark brown sugar, packed
• 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
• 1 cup pecans, chopped

Recipe

• 1 preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
• 2 line a cookie sheet with aluminum foil. i spray it with non-stick cooking spray like pam to help with the sticking, and of course you can always use more butter. place the crackers side by side on the tray forming a large rectangle. this will make the caramel and chocolate easier to spread.
• 3 over high heat, combine the butter and brown sugar in a saucepan. stirring constantly, bring to a boil and cook for 3 minutes after boiling. pour caramel mixture over crackers and spread evenly to the edges; i use an offset spatula for this.
• 4 bake for 5 minutes, pull out and sprinkle the chocolate chips evenly over the crackers. bake for 3 minutes more, pull out and spread the softened chocolate chips evenly over the caramel.
• 5 change the oven setting to a high broil. then sprinkle the pecans evenly over all and place back in the oven for up to a minute -- but you really have to stand by and watch since all broilers differ. be careful or you will burn your nuts :).
• 6 chill in the freezer for 15 minutes or until set. peel the foil away and break into pieces. store in a covered, airtight container in the refrigerator.
