Ingredients
Scale
- 1 sleeve saltine crackers (about 35-40 crackers)
- 1 cup unsalted butter (2 sticks)
- 1 cup packed brown sugar
- 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
- Holiday sprinkles, for decoration
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a 10×15-inch baking sheet with aluminum foil and lightly grease.
- Arrange the saltine crackers in a tight, single layer to completely cover the prepared baking sheet.
- In a medium saucepan, melt the butter and brown sugar over medium heat.
- Once melted, bring the mixture to a rolling boil. Stir constantly and boil for exactly 3 minutes, ensuring you scrape down the sides to prevent crystallization.
- Carefully pour the hot toffee mixture evenly over the saltines. Use a spatula to spread it and cover all crackers.
- Bake for 5 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool on a rack for 5 minutes.
- Meanwhile, place chocolate chips in a heatproof bowl. Microwave in 1-minute intervals on medium power, stirring between each, until almost melted. Stir until smooth.
- Pour the melted chocolate over the baked crackers and spread evenly to completely cover. Immediately top with sprinkles.
- Allow the toffee to harden at room temperature or refrigerate until completely set. Peel off the foil and break into pieces to serve.
