Ritz Cracker Toffee
50 Ritz crackers
1 cup unsalted butter
1 cup brown sugar
2 cups good quality semi-sweet chocolate chips
2 tsp. sea salt flakes
Toppings of your choice (sprinkles, M&Ms or chopped nuts)
- Preheat the oven to 375°F. Line a rimmed 12-by-17-inch baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Place Ritz crackers on prepared pan in a single layer.
- Once the oven is preheated, stir together the butter and brown sugar in a saucepan over medium to medium-high heat. Bring to a boil. Stir gently and constantly for 2 to 3 minutes until caramel mixture is thickened.
- Pour hot caramel mixture over Ritz crackers. Spread evenly with a spatula.
- Bake for 5 minutes or until the edges start to bubble and brown.
- Remove from the oven and immediately sprinkle with chocolate chips over the top in an even layer. Let sit for about 5 minutes until chocolate chips are glossy and super melty. Then, use a spatula or the back of a spoon to spread the melty chocolate evenly over the top.
- Let sit for 2 minutes so the chocolate sets a bit. Sprinkle sea salt and your preferred toppings over the top, such as sprinkles, M&Ms or chopped nuts.
- Place pan in the freezer for 1 hour to set firmly. Break the slab of cracker toffee into pieces.
