Ingredients
 

Main Ingredients

  • 8 oz saltine crackers about enough to cover a 10x15-inch pan
  • 15 tbsp unsalted butter cut into pieces
  • 0.95 cup light brown sugar packed
  • 1.25 tsp pure vanilla extract
  • 0.5 tsp flaky sea salt plus more for topping if you like
  • 1.75 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 0.75 cup chopped pecans or slivered almonds
  • 2 tbsp holiday sprinkles optional
  • 0.5 tsp ground cinnamon optional, for a warm spice note

Instructions

Preparation Steps

  • Heat oven to 350°F. Line a rimmed sheet pan with foil and parchment for easy removal.
  • Arrange crackers in a tight single layer, covering the pan edge to edge.
  • Melt butter and brown sugar in a saucepan over medium heat, stirring until smooth.
  • Bring to a steady boil and cook 3 minutes, stirring often, until thick and glossy.
  • Stir in vanilla, cinnamon (if using), and sea salt. Immediately pour toffee over crackers and spread evenly.
  • Bake 8–10 minutes until the toffee is bubbling across the surface.
  • Scatter chocolate chips over hot toffee. Let sit 3 minutes, then spread into a smooth layer.
  • Top with nuts, a pinch more flaky salt, and sprinkles if desired. Cool, then chill 30 minutes to set.
  • Lift from the pan and break into pieces. Serve or store airtight.

Notes

Try half semi-sweet and half white chocolate, then swirl before adding toppings. For storage, keep pieces in an airtight container at cool room temperature for 5 days or refrigerate up to 2 weeks; freeze up to 2 months.
