Ok, these were fun to make and even more fun to eat. LOVED LOVED these and could not keep myself from eating like ten a day...so be warned these are dangerous! :O)


Why these are so delicious: First, they marry salty and sweet perfectly which is a favorite (if you are shy of salty and sweet then just use reduced salt saltines and they would still be right up any sweet lover's ally) . Second, they are super easy to make. Third, it is best kept and eaten frozen so it is awesome for summer time. Fourth, the texture is so great...chewy, crunchy, and melty. Fifth, they are pretty.

- 40 Saltine crackers (one sleeve about)
- 1 Cup salted butter (don’t substitute with margarine!)
- 1 Cup brown sugar
- 1 12 ounce package of good milk chocolate chips
- 2/3 bag of Heath bar toffee bites or 5-6 Heath bars, crunched up... for topping

*and I added about 1/2 or crushed pecans to the caramel before I poured it over the crackers, optional, I just wanted to use them up, I liked what they added

1.) Lay foil on top of a large cookie sheet. Then arranged the 40ish saltines on top of the foil.

2.) melt butter then add the brown sugar. Stirring constantly bring butter/sugar to a boil. Once it is boiling reduce the heat to medium and let it continue boiling with constant stirring for about three minutes. Remove from heat and add crushed pecans if you want to add them.

3.) Turn on the oven to 375. Evenly pour the caramel over the crackers and spread with a spatula to get the crackers covered as much as possible but don't worry about making these pretty.

4.) Then place the cookie sheet in the oven and let it bake for a couple minutes until the edges brown a little and all the caramel is bubbling...be careful to not let it burn.

5.) Remove from the oven and evenly spread the chocolate chips over the top. Let it rest until all the chips are melted then spread the chocolate over the top. Then while still warm sprinkle the top with the Health toffee bites.

6.)Put in the freezer until hard. Flip the cookies over and peel off the foil. Then break into pieces.

Store in the freezer and serve cold. Seriously the best thing to ever happen to saltines! I dream of having company over and having these served up with really great vanilla ice cream and my homemade butterscotch sauce. TO DIE FOR!!!
