I have heard of Saltine Cracker Toffee, but I had never tried it until now. I can’t believe I waited so long. You might as well call this “crack”! This stuff is SO addictive. We both could not stop eating this stuff. it tastes like toffee; you can’t detect the saltine cracker. It just adds a little crunch.
This is an easy treat to make for friends, co-workers, neighbors or classmates for Valentine’s Day. Just whip up a batch of this and pop it in a cute clear bag with some ribbon. I promise everyone will love it!
Saltine Cracker Toffee
(Printable Recipe)
40 salted saltine crackers (or enough to line your pan)
1 cup unsalted butter
1 cup packed brown sugar
2 cups milk chocolate or semisweet chocolate chips
½ cup chopped pecans (optional)
Preheat oven to 400.
Line a 9×13-inch pan with aluminum foil. Line pan with saltine crackers in a single layer.
In a small pot combine sugar and butter. Bring to a boil and continue boiling for 3 minutes. Mixture should be a deep caramel color. Immediately pour over saltines and spread to cover crackers completely.
Bake for 5 to 6 minutes. Remove from oven and sprinkle chocolate chips over the top. Place back in oven for 1 minute. Remove from oven and spread melted chocolate chips over crackers. Top with chopped nuts. Allow to cool and break into pieces.
Steph, I have made this twice with chocolate (milk and semi sweet). My husband was not as big a fan as I am. Tonight I made it and instead of chocolate i put mini marshmallows and browned them a bit. Talk about a hit!!! They are amazing!!!
