Ingredients
- 6 salada crackers (saltine crackers)
- 1 cup brown sugar (200 grams)
- 125 grams butter
- 360 grams milk or dark chocolate
- 50 grams white chocolate
- silver cachous, red and green sprinkles, edible glitter (for decorating)
Instructions
- Pre-heat oven to 170 degrees celsius/340 degrees fahrenheit, fan-forced (or equivalent).
- Grease a slice tin (approx 28 x 18cm) and line with baking paper, leaving paper overhanging at sides to assist with removal from tin later.
- Line bottom of tin with saladas – they may double up in parts.
- Combine sugar and butter in a saucepan over low heat, stirring until butter melts and sugar dissolves. Bring to a simmer, turning up heat if necessary, and simmer for 1 minute without stirring.
- Pour over saladas and spread to edges with a spoon if necessary to ensure saladas are completely covered.
- Place into oven and bake for 5 minutes or until caramel starts to bubble.
- Remove from oven and melt milk/dark chocolate by placing in microwave for 25 second bursts and stirring between each burst until completely melted. Pour melted milk/dark chocolate over the caramel layer.
- Melt the white chocolate by placing in microwave for 25 second bursts and stirring between each burst until completely melted. Drizzle lines of white chocolate over the milk/dark chocolate layer.
- Decorate with silver cachous, red and green sprinkles, edible glitter.
- Allow to cool a little and then place in fridge to set completely.
- Once set, cut into shards using a sharp knife. Or "crack" it into pieces with your hands!
