Saltine Toffee
Submitted by: Kristy

Saltine toffee is a delicious easy way to make the old fashioned treat. Another twist is to add a cup of chopped nuts such as pecans or walnuts.

  • 1 cup butter
  • 35 saltine crackers
  • 1 cup packed dark brown sugar
  • 12 oz. semi sweet chocolate chips
  1. Melt butter in a large saucepan.
  2. Line large baking sheet with waxed paper.  Brush paper with a small amount of butter.
  3. Line crackers on buttered parchment, touching with no overlap.
  4. Whisk brown sugar into remaining butter.  Set over medium heat.  Bring to boil and boil for 2 minutes.
  5. Pour mixture evenly over crackers.
  6. Bake at 400 degrees for about 10 minutes or until brown and bubbly.
  7. As soon as you take them out of the oven cover with chocolate chips.  Once melted (about 5 minutes) spread chocolate evenly over surface.  If using nuts, gently press into melted chocolate.
  8. Chill until firm, about 30 minutes
  9. Lift paper and place on cutting surface.  Cut into small bite size pieces.
