Christmas Crack (Cracker Toffee)


One week until Christmas guys!!
Are you all ready???
Well we are not. 
But, I like to squeeze in some baking time
during this very busy time of the year.

December feels like the fastest month of the year.
It feels like it was just Thanksgiving!
Now, we are here!


Anyways, Don't you just love finding a recipe that requires Ingredients
that you already have in your house?
This is definitely one of the easiest Christmas or all year round
dessert I have ever made.
If you bake a lot like me, you will pretty much have everything you need
in the house already.
You don't need a special trip to the store!

All you need is 

-Saltine crackers
-Butter
-Chocolate chips
-Brown sugar
-Sprinkles!

How easy right?

Let me know what you guys think!



Christmas Crack (Cracker Toffee)


Ingredients


  • 40 saltine crackers (1 sleeve)
  • 1 cup salted butter (2 sticks)
  • 1 cup light brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 1 (12 oz) bag of milk chocolate chips
  • nuts or sprinkles for topping

Instructions


  • Preheat oven to 400f degrees.
  • Line cookie sheet with nonstick aluminum foil (or use regular foil and spray generously with nonstick cooking spray.)
  • Cover cookie sheet with one layer of saltine crackers.
  • In a medium saucepan over medium high heat, bring butter and brown sugar to a boil, stirring continuously for about two minutes (it should be bubbly.)
  • Remove from heat, stir in one teaspoon pure vanilla extract.
  • Pour toffee mixture over crackers, then bake for 6 minutes.
  • Remove from oven, sprinkle tops of warm crackers with milk chocolate chips.
  • Allow chocolate to soften for a minute or two, then spread chocolate evenly on top of crackers. Now is the time to add sprinkles or chopped nuts to the top.
  • Allow to cool, then break up into bite size pieces. You can speed up the cooling process by putting the tray in the refrigerator.






How festive does these look?!?

Enjoy!!
