If you’ve never made this holiday treat, prepare for the addictive kind of deliciousness that disappears faster than you can plate it. Sweet, salty, buttery, and perfectly crisp — it’s pure Christmas magic. ✨
📝 Ingredients: • 40 saltine crackers (about 1 sleeve) • 1 cup unsalted butter • 1 cup brown sugar • 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips • ½ tsp vanilla extract • Sea salt (optional, for topping)
👩🍳 Directions: 1️⃣ Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 9x13-inch pan with foil and lightly grease. 2️⃣ Arrange saltine crackers in a single layer — salted side down (trust me, that’s the secret to that perfect salty-sweet bite!). 3️⃣ In a saucepan, melt butter and brown sugar over medium heat. Bring to a boil, then simmer for 3 minutes, stirring constantly. 4️⃣ Pour the hot toffee evenly over crackers and spread gently. 5️⃣ Bake for 5 minutes until bubbly and golden. 6️⃣ Remove from oven, sprinkle chocolate chips over top, and let sit for 5 minutes before spreading smooth. 7️⃣ Sprinkle sea salt if desired. Chill in fridge for about 2 hours, then break into pieces and try not to eat it all yourself. 😉
✨ Tip: Store in an airtight container — though honestly, it rarely lasts long enough to need one!
