“Crack”er Candy

This is one of my favorite desserts to make as it is quick and easy and everyone loves  it!  This is a recipe that has been all over the internet for a few years now. You can adjust the topping of this recipe with the holidays, I usually add red and green candy topping for the Christmas season, you could add nuts and red candies for Valentine’s Day, most small candy and nut toppings will work.
INGREDIENTS
1 large sleeve of saltine crackers
1/2 pound of butter
3/4 cup packed brown sugar
2 cups semi sweet mini chocolate chips
1 cup of toffee bits (find in the baking aisle)

DIRECTIONS
Preheat oven to 425 degrees.  Arrange crackers in a single layer on a cookie sheet that has been covered with non- stick aluminum foil, I also use a small amount of non stick spray.  Set aside. Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat, stir in sugar and bring to a low boil. Continue to boil and stir constantly until the butter is combined, this takes about 3-4 minutes. When the mixture is combined, pour it over the crackers slowly covering the crackers the best you can. Bake for 5 minutes or until the edges of the crackers start to turn brown. Take this out of the oven and sprinkle the chocolate chips over the mixture. Shut the oven off and return the cookie sheet back into the oven with the door open for 1 minute or until chips begin to melt. Remove from oven again and spread the chocolate completely over the cracker mixture. Sprinkle with toffee bits. Cool in the refrigerator for 1 hour. Remove from fridge and break into pieces.

Enjoy,
