Ingredients
  

For the Base
  • 1 box Saltine crackers Use these to add a crunchy, salty layer to your toffee; they're the perfect canvas!
  • 1 cup Unsalted butter Ensures you control the saltiness and allows for a rich, creamy texture in the toffee.
  • 1 cup Brown sugar This gives your toffee that deep, caramel-like flavor that pairs wonderfully with the Saltines.
For the Topping
  • 1 cup Semi-sweet chocolate chips Melted on top, these provide a luscious, chocolatey finish.
  • 1 cup Granulated sugar Mix this with cinnamon to create a sweet topping that recalls the warm flavors of churros.
  • 1 tablespoon Cinnamon Adds a warm, spicy sweetness that elevates your toffee.
  • 1 teaspoon Sea salt A sprinkle enhances the flavor balance.

Equipment

  • Medium saucepan
  • Baking Sheet
  • parchment paper

Method
 

Step‑by‑Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Prepare a baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper.
  2. Arrange the Saltine crackers in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
  3. In a medium saucepan, combine the unsalted butter and brown sugar over medium heat. Stir until it comes to a boil, then simmer for 3 minutes.
  4. Pour the hot toffee mixture evenly over the arranged Saltine crackers.
  5. Bake for 5-7 minutes until bubbly and slightly darkened around the edges. Cool for a few minutes.
  6. Sprinkle the semi-sweet chocolate chips over the hot toffee and let them melt.
  7. Combine granulated sugar and cinnamon in a bowl. Once the chocolate melts, spread it into an even layer.
  8. Sprinkle the cinnamon-sugar mixture over the melted chocolate and finish with a light sprinkle of sea salt.
  9. Let the toffee cool completely, then break it into rustic pieces.
