Chocolate Toffee Squares
Source: www.simpleinternet.com/recipes/
1 sleeve ( or maybe a few more crackers as needed ) of saltine crackers
2 sticks butter or margarine ( do not use fat free etc. )
1 cup sugar
1, 12 oz package of chocolate chips ( semi-sweet etc. )
1/2 cup finely chopped nuts of choice
heavy duty foil
cookie sheet or baking pan with lip
This is unusal but easy to make, delicious and looks great.
Line a jelly roll pan or a cookie sheet with a lip with heavy duty foil. Place saltine crackers to fit neatly side by side . Preheat oven to 400F.
Meanwhile melt butter and sugar in a saucepan over medium heat and stir until butter and sugar are completely melted and smooth. With a spoon drop melted mixture evenly over the crackers and spread gently if needed to coat all crackers evenly.
Place in oven and bake 5 to 7 minutes or until crackers and caramel are golden. Remove pan from heat and sprinkle over the chocolate chips. Wait several minutes and use back of a spoon to evenly spread the chocolate which will start to melt.
Sprinkle over chopped nuts of choice ( walnuts, almonds , pecans etc. ). Place pan in refrigerator about 1 hour to firm up everything.
Remove pan from refrigerator . With a sharp knife, cut through hardened mixture, making even size pieces of choice. Lift off carefully ( you may have to peel foil off bottom of pieces since the caramel may stick to the foil ).
Place squares on platter. Keep in a cool place or covered refrigerated until use.
