Saltine Toffee

4 oz saltine crackers (1 full sleeve)
1 cup butter
1 cup dark brown sugar
2 cups chocolate chips (semi-sweet or milk chocolate)
3/4 cup chopped pecans (optional - we didn't use these)

Preheat oven to 400 degrees.

Line a rimmed cookie sheet (jelly roll pan) with saltine crackers in single layer.

In a saucepan combine the sugar and the butter. Bring to a boil and boil for 3 minutes. Immediately pour over saltines and spread t cover crackers completely.

Bake for 5 to 6 minutes. Remove from oven and sprinkle chocolate chips over the top.

Let sit for 5 minutes. Spread melted chocolate and top with chopped nuts (if using). (We also sprinkled some holiday sprinkles on top last night.).

Cool completely (I pop ours into the freezer for about 30 minutes) and break into pieces.
