🍫Christmas Crack (Saltine Toffee)
Ingredients
40–48 saltine crackers (enough to cover a baking sheet)
1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter
1 cup brown sugar (light or dark)
2 cups semi-sweet or milk chocolate chips
Christmas sprinkles (red, green, white)
Optional toppings: crushed candy canes, chopped pecans, sea salt
Instructions
- Prep pan
Preheat oven to 400°F (205°C).
Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil and spray lightly.
Arrange saltine crackers in a single layer, edge to edge.
- Make toffee
In a saucepan over medium heat, melt butter and brown sugar.
Bring to a boil and boil 3 minutes, stirring constantly.
- Pour & bake
Carefully pour hot toffee over crackers, spreading evenly.
Bake 5 minutes until bubbly.
- Add chocolate
Remove from oven and sprinkle chocolate chips over the top.
Let sit 2 minutes, then spread smooth.
- Decorate
Immediately add Christmas sprinkles (and any extras).
- Set & break
Cool completely, then refrigerate 30–45 minutes until firm.
Break into pieces and serve.
Tips for Success
Don’t underboil the toffee—it needs the full 3 minutes
Use foil, not parchment (toffee sticks better to parchment)
Sprinkle toppings while chocolate is still warm
