Crack Toffee Bars Recipe
These indulgent bars are a perfect treat for special occasions. Sweet, salty, and utterly irresistible!
Ingredients
- 40 saltine crackers (enough to line a standard baking sheet)
- 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter
- 1 cup light brown sugar (packed)
- 1 bag (12 oz) semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup chopped nuts or sprinkles (optional, for topping)
Instructions
- Prepare the Baking Sheet:
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil, and spray lightly with nonstick cooking spray.
- Arrange saltine crackers in a single layer, covering the entire sheet.
- Make the Toffee:
- In a medium saucepan, melt butter over medium heat.
- Add brown sugar and stir until fully dissolved.
- Bring the mixture to a boil and let it bubble for 3 minutes without stirring.
- Pour the Toffee:
- Immediately pour the hot toffee mixture evenly over the saltine crackers. Spread gently with a spatula to cover all crackers.
- Bake:
- Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake for 5 minutes, or until the toffee is bubbling.
- Add Chocolate:
- Remove the pan from the oven and immediately sprinkle chocolate chips over the hot toffee.
- Let sit for 2-3 minutes, then use a spatula to spread melted chocolate evenly over the toffee.
- Top and Cool:
- Sprinkle with chopped nuts, sprinkles, or sea salt for extra flavor.
- Allow the bars to cool completely at room temperature, or place them in the refrigerator for faster setting.
- Break Into Pieces:
- Once fully set, break into uneven pieces and enjoy!
Tips:
- For a Weight Watchers-friendly version, use sugar-free chocolate chips and reduce butter and sugar quantities.
- Add a sprinkle of flaky sea salt for a gourmet touch.
- Store in an airtight container for up to 1 week.
