Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 5 oz saltine crackers about one sleeve
- 8 oz unsalted butter cut into pieces
- 0.88 cup light brown sugar, packed
- 0.75 tsp pure vanilla extract
- 0.5 tsp almond extract optional but tasty
- 1.9 cup semisweet chocolate chips
- 1.25 cup sliced almonds lightly toasted if you like
- 0.5 tsp flaky sea salt to finish
Instructions
Preparation Steps
- Heat oven to 350°F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil, then parchment.
- Arrange the crackers in a snug single layer on the pan.
- Melt butter and brown sugar in a saucepan over medium heat, stirring until smooth.
- Bring to a gentle boil and cook 3 minutes, stirring often, until glossy and thick.
- Remove from heat; stir in vanilla and almond extracts. Pour evenly over crackers and spread quickly.
- Bake 8–10 minutes until the toffee is bubbling across the surface.
- Scatter chocolate chips over hot toffee. Let sit 2 minutes, then spread into a smooth layer.
- Sprinkle sliced almonds over the chocolate and finish with flaky salt. Gently press to adhere.
- Cool to room temperature, then refrigerate 30–40 minutes until firm.
- Break into pieces. Serve or store airtight at cool room temperature for up to 1 week.
Notes
Try a swirl: drizzle 2 tbsp warmed white chocolate over the set bark and feather with a toothpick. For extra crunch, swap in 1/4 cup chopped toffee bits with the almonds. Store in layers between parchment to keep the chocolate pristine.
