Easy Old Fashioned Saltine Cracker Toffee Recipe
I kept seeing old fashioned saltine cracker toffee popping up on social media everywhere. Everyone was raving about it and I had never tasted it. It sounded similar to a homemade kit kat bar recipe I had tried (and loved) before so I figured I had to give it a try and see what all the fuss was about. After tasting it I understood why everyone was raving about it! It IS amazing and it’s really easy to make too so whip up a batch for Christmas and everyone will be begging you for the recipe!
To make this easy saltine cracker toffee you’ll simply preheat your oven to 400 degrees. Then either cover a cookie sheet with foil or use a Silpat
mat on your cookie sheet like I do (I LOVE them and use them for just about everything and nothing sticks to them!).
Bring butter, sugar and vanilla to a rolling boil for 3 minutes. Pour evenly over a layer of saltines and spread it to make it even. Then bake for 6 minutes or until bubbly. Then while the toffee is still hot pour chocolate chips evenly over the top. It will seem like they won’t melt but start spreading them around and they will! Spread to form an even layer. Then sprinkle with your choice topping! We like slivered almonds or mini M&M candies.
Then freeze for one hour and break apart into pieces. You can store it on the counter or in the fridge if your kitchen is warm.

I had to read the name of this recipe a couple of times to make sure I was reading it right. This sounds so intriguing and I cannot wait to make it. My only concern is the boil time. I hope I don’t mess that up and ruin it because I LOVE toffee anything.
It is really so good. Don’t let the boil time scare you, just keep an eye on it.
Oh that sounds so neat! My sister made something like this years ago…I have to try! YUMMY
It is yummy. But be warned, it is addictive.
That is a very simple recipe. The kids would have fun making this one and it would not be too complicated for them.
