Christmas Toffee

I found this recipe for Christmas Crack and thought it would be a tasty treat to try since I already had all of the ingredients in my pantry.  I made a few changes and thought it seemed more like Christmas Toffee.

Here's my version for a small batch:

15 Saltine crackers

1/2 stick of butter

1/4 c brown sugar

1/2 chocolate chips

1/3 c mini M&Ms

handful of peanuts

Line a greased pan with saltine crackers.

 Heat butter and sugar on the stove and bring to a boil.

Boil hard for 3 minutes or until the mixture thickens up.

I did exactly 3 minutes and I think it was a little too runny.

 Pour liquid over crackers

 Bake at 325 for 7-8 minutes.

Have toppings ready to go when the toffee is done baking.

 Spread chocolate chips over hot toffee.

 Let them melt and then use a spatula to spread chocolate around evenly.

 Add M&Ms and nuts while chocolate is still melty.

 Put it in the fridge to harden.

 Use a small flipper to break the toffee apart.

 Eat :)
