I made this for the first time 2 days ago. I'm making another batch today. My hubby calls it "crack candy" because of the crackers lol. We can't stop munching. I used milk chocolate chips on the first batch and I added sea salt on top of a 1/4 of it, caramel sauce on another 1/4, pecan chips on 1/4, and left the last part same as the original recipe. Used semi sweet chips this time and a 1/3 sea salt, 1/3 caramel and 1/3 original. Can't hardly wait for it to chill!

I must admit, first time making anything like this, where it's supposed to "set" up. Well...it kind of did for me...I realize, I did not boil the sugar/butter mixture long enough as my toffee part is chewy and grainy. The flavor though, is great. I will make these again and would fully expect to give it 5 stars. They're so easy and very delicious. Can't wait until the next batch and my concentrating better on the boil time. Thanks for sharing!

DD and I made these this morning and they were very easy to make. I sprayed the foil with cooking spray, and everything came right off. I used 1 stick of parkay which is equal to 1/2 cup (had no butter) and 1 cup of brown sugar. I dissolved on the stove top for a few minutes and poured it on the crackers, and spread it around a bit. I didn't count the crackers, but I used one "sleeve" of saltines, that I was afraid was gonna go stale. It worked out perfectly, these are soooo addicting. I crushed up some pecans and covered 1/2 of the pan with them, left the other 1/2 just the yummy chocolate. I used mini chips, and they melted great, spread them around and put in the fridge...heavenly!
