Christmas Crack

Christmas Crack 40 saltine crackers 2 sticks of butter (1 cup) 1 cup packed brown sugar 2 cups semisweet chocolate chips I recommend Guittard or Ghirardelli. Nestle (Toll House) chocolate chips do not work in this recipe. 1/2 cup holiday sprinkles or 1/2 cup sliced almonds cooking spray Line a sheet pan with foil and coat with cooking spray or alternatively you can use a nonstick silicone baking mat. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Place the crackers in a single layer on the baking sheet. Place the butter and brown sugar in a medium saucepan, bring to a boil. Boil for 3 minutes. Pour the brown sugar mixture over the crackers and spread with a spatula to coat. Place the sheet pan in the oven and bake for 3-5 minutes, or until bubbling. Remove the pan from the oven and immediately scatter the chocolate chips over the top. Place the pan back in the oven for another 2-3 minutes to melt the chocolate. Spread the chocolate evenly over the top. Place the sprinkles on top of the chocolate. Let the toffee sit until completely cool, either at room temperature or you can refrigerate. Cut into pieces and serve. NOTES Please do not use Nestle (Toll House) chocolate chips in this recipe. They contain an additive to help the chips hold their shape, which in turn means that the chocolate will not melt smoothly and be spreadable. My first choice chocolate is Guittard, if that's not available Ghirardelli is also a great option.
