  • Total Time: 25 minutes

Ingredients

– 1 sleeve Saltine crackers
– 1 cup unsalted butter
– 1 cup packed brown sugar
– 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
– 1 cup chopped nuts (optional, e.g., pecans or walnuts)
– Sea salt flakes (for sprinkling)


Instructions

With just a few steps, you can create your own amazing batch of Christmas Crack (Saltine Bark):

1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Arrange Crackers: Lay the Saltine crackers in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
3. Make Toffee: In a saucepan, melt the butter and brown sugar over medium heat. Stir constantly until the mixture boils. Allow it to boil for 3 minutes without stirring.
4. Pour Over Crackers: Immediately pour the toffee mixture over the Saltine crackers, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
5. Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 5-10 minutes, or until the toffee is bubbly and caramelized.
6. Add Chocolate: Remove from the oven and sprinkle the chocolate chips evenly over the hot toffee. Let it sit for a few minutes until the chips melt.
7. Spread Chocolate: Use a spatula to spread the melted chocolate evenly over the toffee layer.
8. Add Nuts: Sprinkle the chopped nuts on top of the chocolate, pressing gently to adhere.
9. Cool: Allow the bark to cool at room temperature for 1 hour, or place it in the refrigerator to speed up the process.
10. Break Into Pieces: Once set, break the bark into pieces of your desired size.
11. Sprinkle Sea Salt: For an extra touch, sprinkle sea salt flakes over the top.

These simple steps will guide you in creating this incredible holiday treat with ease and joy!
