I made these last night and they are soooo good! and simple! and cheap! They sound odd b/c of the saltines, but its really good.
Chocolate Saltine Cracker Delight
Easy, fast, inexpensive, delicious!
40 or so Saltine Crackers
1 cup butter (do not substitute)
1 cup brown sugar
1 12 oz. package semi-sweet chocolate morsels
Optional Topping:
Approx. 1/4 cup shelled walnuts or pecans, chopped ultra fine
Preheat oven to 325 degrees F.
Line a jellyroll pan (aluminum pan with shallow sides) with aluminum foil.
Arrange saltine crackers on foil. Make sure crackers are flat, and pan is full.
Melt butter and brown sugar in a saucepan and boil for 3 minutes. Pour over crackers, spread with spoon to coat evenly.
Bake at 325 degrees F. for 5 minutes.
Remove from oven, pour chocolate chips over and let stand 5 minutes to melt.
Spread around with a knife or spoon, then cover with bits of chopped nuts or some kind of brickle if you so desire.
Place in refrigerator or freezer until hard. Break into bite-size or cracker-size pieces.
You may also substitute white chocolate pieces or whatever you like instead of the semi-sweet chocolate. This makes a delectable gift or treat for any age! We made several batches of this over the holidays and it is absolutely delicious
Also I like to take prezels, put them on a cookie sheet lined with parchmnt paper, place a rolo in the center of each one, pop them in the oven unti the rolo starts to get melty (few minutes, top) when you take them out, push down a pecan halve in the middle and let cool. Easy, cheap, and yummy! I always make these for holiday gatherings and get sooo many compliments. Peeople have no idea how simple and easy it is. |
