Ingredients
 

Main Ingredients

  • 7 oz graham crackers, broken into sheets
  • 14 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 0.9 cup packed light brown sugar
  • 1.25 tsp vanilla extract
  • 0.5 tsp kosher salt
  • 1.75 cup semisweet chocolate chips
  • 0.9 cup chopped pecans
  • 0.25 tsp flaky sea salt optional

Instructions

Preparation Steps

  • Heat oven to 350°F. Line a 9×13-inch pan with foil and lightly grease.
  • Arrange graham cracker sheets in a single tight layer to fully cover the pan.
  • Melt butter and brown sugar in a saucepan over medium heat, stirring until smooth.
  • Bring the mixture to a steady simmer and cook, stirring, for about 3 minutes until glossy and thickened.
  • Remove from heat. Stir in vanilla and kosher salt, then immediately pour toffee over the crackers. Spread evenly.
  • Bake until bubbling over the entire surface, 8–10 minutes.
  • Scatter chocolate chips over the hot toffee. Let sit 2 minutes, then spread into a smooth layer.
  • Sprinkle pecans over the chocolate and finish with flaky sea salt, if using. Press gently to adhere.
  • Cool to room temperature. Chill 20–30 minutes to set, then lift out and cut into bars.

Notes

Variation: Swap pecans for almonds or crushed pretzels for a salty crunch. For a mocha twist, dust the melted chocolate with a pinch of espresso powder before it sets. Storage: Keep bars in an airtight container at room temperature for 3 days or refrigerate up to 1 week.
