Ingredients
- 13 to 15 graham crackers approximately 1 ½ sleeves
- 1 ¼ cups unsalted butter 2 ½ sticks
- 1 ¼ cups dark brown sugar 1 ¼
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt or sea salt
- 10 ounces semi sweet chocolate chips or milk chocolate or dark chocolate chips, about 2 cups
- ⅔ cup Heath toffee bits or other toppings
Instructions
- Line a jelly roll pan (10 x 15 inches) with nonstick foil or parchment paper. You can also use a silicone baking mat. Preheat the oven to 350°F.
- Place the crackers in a single layer on the jelly roll pan. You may have a little space left over – that is perfectly fine. Set aside.
- Melt brown sugar and butter together in a 3 quart heavy bottomed sauce pan, stirring frequently over medium high heat.
- Bring mixture to a boil and boil for 3 full minutes stirring almost continuously. (If using a candy thermometer, you are looking for 270°F-290°F degrees.)
- Remove from heat and stir in vanilla extract and salt.
- Pour mixture over the top of the graham crackers and spread evenly over the crackers using an offset spatula if necessary.
- Place the pan in the oven to cook for 5 to 7 minutes. It should be bubbling vigorously when removed. (If using a candy thermometer, you are looking for 300°F-310°F degrees.)
- Remove the pan from the oven and immediately sprinkle chocolate chips over the top. Cover the pan with foil and let sit for 5 minutes or until the chocolate chips have softened enough to spread easily.
- Remove foil and use an offset spatula to gently spread melted chocolate.
- Top with Heath toffee bits (or other toppings).
- Let toffee set up at room temperature until completely cooled, or chill in fridge for at least 2 hours.
- Use your hands to "crack" it or use a knife to cut into squares.
- Serve and enjoy.
