Ingredients
  

For the Toffee
  • 40 crackers Saltine crackers Swap with graham crackers or pretzel crisps for a variation.
  • 1 cup Unsalted butter Salted butter can be used; reduce added salt.
  • 1 cup Brown sugar Light or dark varieties are acceptable.
For the Toppings
  • 1 cup Semi-sweet chocolate chips Can substitute with dark chocolate for less sweetness.
  • 1 teaspoon Cinnamon Nutmeg could be an interesting alternative.
  • 1/2 cup Granulated sugar Coconut sugar is a healthier substitute.
  • 1/4 teaspoon Sea salt Kosher salt can be used as an alternative.

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Lay out saltine crackers in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they touch but do not overlap.
  3. In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the unsalted butter and brown sugar together, stirring until the mixture comes to a gentle boil, about 3-4 minutes.
  4. Pour the toffee mixture evenly over the arranged saltine crackers, spreading it if necessary. Bake for 5-7 minutes until bubbly and slightly darker.
  5. Quickly sprinkle the semi-sweet chocolate chips over the toffee while it's still hot, allowing them to melt.
  6. Mix granulated sugar and cinnamon in a bowl, then sprinkle it over the melted chocolate.
  7. Lightly sprinkle sea salt over the chocolate and cinnamon-sugar topping.
  8. Let the toffee cool completely on the counter before breaking it into pieces.
