Toffee ("Christmas Crack")

I love this recipe. It's so weird, unique, and delicious! It's so hard to stop eating this!! I don't even like toffee that much otherwise, but made with saltines? Oh yeah! Sweet and salty. We love to make these at Christmas time especially. I got this recipe from my ex-sister-in-law Tammy. --Stacy

Ingredients:

Saltines
1 cup butter
1 cup brown sugar
1 1/2 cups chocolate chips
Topping (colored chocolate chips, Reese's Pieces, walnuts, etc.)

Instructions:

Preheat oven to 400° F. Spray large cookie sheet. Cover with saltines. In a saucepan, heat butter and brown sugar to boiling. Once boiling, boil for 3 minutes exactly, stirring constantly. Then, pour mixture over crackers and coat all crackers. Next, place sheet into oven for exactly 5 minutes. Remove promptly and pour 1 1/2 cups chocolate chips over tray and allow to melt. Spread chocolate evenly over entire tray of toffee and cover with your favorite topping. Place in fridge until firm. Break into pieces and serve. Enjoy!

Notes:

Follow the directions EXACTLY. It says 1 1/2 cups of chocolate chips, but you use a whole bag, which might be more like 2 cups.
