Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup unsalted butter
- 60 saltine crackers
- 1 cup light brown sugar, packed
- 12 ounces semi-sweet chocolate chips
- Sprinkles (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with foil, covering the bottom and sides completely.
- Place the saltine crackers in a single layer on the foil-lined baking sheet. Break crackers into smaller pieces if needed to fill the pan completely.
- In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium-high heat. Stir in the brown sugar and cook, stirring constantly, until the sugar is dissolved. Bring to a boil and let it cook for 3 minutes without stirring.
- Pour the butter mixture evenly over the crackers. Use a rubber spatula to spread and cover all the crackers.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 5 minutes.
- Remove from the oven and immediately sprinkle the chocolate chips over the hot toffee. Let the chocolate sit for 2-3 minutes to soften. If needed, return to the oven for an additional minute.
- Once the chocolate is melted, use an offset spatula or the back of a spoon to spread it evenly over the toffee. Add sprinkles if desired.
- Allow the toffee to cool completely. For quicker cooling, place the baking sheet in the refrigerator. Once cooled and hardened, break into pieces and enjoy!
