Christmas Crack Candy

I've seen this recipe in several different places, so I don't know where it first came from.  I've seen it also called Christmas Crack or Saltine Toffee Candy.  Whatever you want to call it, you'll definitely call it delicious.  I think of it as "easy on the teeth toffee".

Crickle Candy

1 sleeve saltines (might need a few more crackers depending on your pan size)
1 c. butter
1 c. brown sugar
1 pkg. chocolate chops
Chopped nuts, coconut, marshmallows or whatever you want to top it with.

Preheat oven to 425.

Line 10x15 cookie sheet with foil.  You want to use a pan with a rim around it.  Lay out crackers in a single layer, touching sides.

Melt butter in saucepan.  When melted, stir in brown sugar.  Bring to a gentle boil and cook for 3 minutes, stirring constantly.

Pour over crackers and place pan in preheated oven.  Bake for about 5 minutes, or until edges get a little darker.

Sprinkle chips over cracker & toffee.  The heat will melt the chips and you can spread it with a spatula.  Top with whatever topping you want.  Cool and refrigerate until set.  Crack apart and keep in refrigerator.

*I've seen other suggestions to use graham crackers and top with marshmallows for a smores candy.  You could also use white chocolate and peppermint.
