Ingredients

Scale
  • Saltine crackers (enough to cover one baking sheet)

  • 1 cup unsalted butter

  • 1 cup brown sugar

  • 1 ½ cups semi-sweet chocolate chips

  • 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon

  • 3 tablespoons granulated sugar

  • Sea salt, for sprinkling

Instructions

1. Prepare the Pan

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or foil. Arrange saltine crackers in a single, even layer.

2. Make the Toffee

In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter and brown sugar together.
Stir constantly until the mixture comes to a boil, then continue boiling for 3 minutes until thick and bubbly.

3. Bake

Pour the hot toffee evenly over the crackers.
Bake for 5–7 minutes, or until the toffee is bubbling across the entire tray.

4. Add the Chocolate

Remove from the oven and immediately sprinkle chocolate chips on top.
Let them sit for 1–2 minutes to melt, then spread the chocolate evenly with a spatula.

5. Add the Churro Topping

In a small bowl, mix cinnamon and granulated sugar.
Sprinkle generously over the warm chocolate.
Finish with a light pinch of sea salt to balance the sweetness.

6. Cool and Break

Allow the toffee to cool completely at room temperature or in the fridge.
Once set, break into pieces and enjoy!

Notes

  • Use heavy-duty foil or parchment for easy cleanup.

  • Don’t skip the boiling step—it ensures the toffee sets properly.

  • Try flavor twists: white chocolate, dark chocolate, or crushed pecans.

  • Store in an airtight container for up to 1 week.

  • Freezer-friendly: freeze for up to 2 months.
