Sweet Goodness

Today I want to share a recipe that has become a little holiday tradition at our house. We call it sweet goodness, but you might know it by cracker toffee. Either way, it's magnificent.

Here's what you'll need:
  • Club Crackers
  • 2 sticks of Butter
  • 1/2 Cup Brown Sugar
  • 1/4 tsp. Baking Soda
  • Chocolate Chips
  • Chopped Pecans(optional)
Preheat oven to 375°.

Line cookie sheet with tin foil and line crackers on sheet:

Melt butter, add brown sugar and baking soda, stir until mixed.

Pour butter mixture over crackers and bake for 8 minutes.

Remove from oven and pour on chocolate chips and nuts. I always like to choose a variety of chocolate chips(white, semi-sweet, swirl, etc) to add more visual interest:

Let stand for 2 minutes, place in refrigerator for 3 hours.


Break into pieces and serve...or eat it all yourself, you decide!

  9. OMG THIS LOOKS SOOOOO Awesome! I hope you don't mind, I reposted your recipe over on my blog, with links to your original. I love sweet plus salty and HATE overly sweet - so I'm looking forward to trying it out sometime before I run out of time being able to blame the holidays on eating whatever I want to!
