Ingredients
- 50 Ritz Crackers or Saltine Crackers
- 1 cup butter
- 1 cup light brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup chocolate chips
- 1 teaspoons fleur de sel , optional
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F. Line a 9x13 baking dish with parchment paper, carefully folding the edges so you can easily lay the crackers flat.
- Line the baking dish with crackers. If using Ritz, the circles won't line up perfectly, so break a few into halves and do a second layer to cover the holes. It doesn't need to look pretty.
- In a medium saucepan, heat the butter and brown sugar over medium heat, stirring frequently until fully combined and smooth. Allow it to reach 285°F using a candy thermometer and then let it stay at this heat for 3-4 minutes.
- Remove the mixture from the heat and whisk in the vanilla. The mixture will spit a little, this is normal. Pour it over the crackers while hot. It will start to set immediately.
- Bake the Christmas crack for 8 minutes. Remove it and turn off oven.
- Sprinkle the top with the chocolate chips, then return to the warm oven (oven is off, but warm). Allow it to sit in the warm oven for 1-2 minutes or until the chocolate starts to glisten slightly. Using an offset spatula, smooth it out.
- If desired, sprinkle the top with the fleur de sel, and allow to cool slightly before putting in the fridge to set. This will take several hours before toffee is easily cut.
- Remove the parchment paper and cut into squares.
