Ingredients

• 40 pieces saltine crackers
• 1 cup unsalted butter
• 1 cup light brown sugar
• 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
• 0.5 teaspoons sea salt flakes
• 0 optional toppings (e.g., chopped nuts, sprinkles, or shredded coconut)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a large baking sheet with aluminum foil and then lay a piece of parchment paper on top. Ensure the liner covers the edges for easy cleanup.

Step 2

Arrange the saltine crackers in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, with no overlapping, until the whole sheet is covered.

Step 3

In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter and brown sugar together, stirring constantly. Once the mixture begins to bubble, continue stirring and cooking for 3 minutes until it thickens and resembles caramel.

Step 4

Carefully pour the hot caramel mixture over the saltine crackers, spreading it evenly with a spatula to cover all the crackers completely.

Step 5

Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 5 to 7 minutes. The caramel will become bubbly. Remove from the oven and allow to cool for 1-2 minutes.

Step 6

Sprinkle the chocolate chips evenly over the hot caramel layer. Wait 1-2 minutes for the chocolate to soften, then use a spatula to spread it into a smooth, even layer.

Step 7

While the chocolate is still soft, sprinkle the sea salt flakes and any optional toppings, such as chopped nuts, sprinkles, or shredded coconut, over the top.

Step 8

Let the toffee cool to room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 2 hours or until fully set.

Step 9

Once set, break or cut the toffee into squares or shards. Serve immediately or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.
