Hi, Nancy!
This is for Kim in Puyallup, WA who was looking for a cracker toffee recipe.
Nancy :-D Bonney Lake, WA
Almond Cracker Toffee
1 sleeve saltine crackers (I prefer salted) 1 cup butter 1 cup brown sugar 1 (12 oz.) bag semi-sweet chocolate chips 1 teaspoon butter 1/2 cup sliced almonds
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Lay the saltines in a single layer in a well-buttered or nonstick (preferable) 15x10-inch pan. In a heavy saucepan heat the butter and brown sugar until they blend well. Boil for about 3 1/2 minutes more then pour over the crackers. Spread mixture evenly. Bake for 10 minutes.
In the meantime, toast the sliced almonds in a medium skillet over medium heat with the teaspoon of butter. Set aside. Remove toffee from oven and top evenly with chocolate chips. Bake for 2 minutes more. Remove pan and spread melted chocolate to cover. Top with toasted nuts and lightly tap nuts with tip of a knife to secure them in the chocolate. Cool completely and chill in refrigerator about 1 hour. Toffee should be so chilled you can pop it out like a big ice cube. If it resists, try freezing it for 15 minutes. Break it into uneven pieces and eat! Makes about 40 to 50 pieces.
