Don't knock it till you try it! I stumbled upon this unusual treat (what do you call this, a cookie? A square?...) on The Parsley Thief and it seemed similar to something an Aunt of mine used to make with graham crackers so I had to give it a try.
The salty crackers and sweet toffee make a great combination...feel free to top it with nuts, a drizzle of white chocolate or whatever tickles your fancy!

Printable Recipe
Ingredients
1 Sleeve of saltine crackers -- or enough to cover a cookie sheet
3/4 cups butter
1 1/2 cups brown sugar, packed
2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
Directions
- Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees.
- Line a cookie sheet with aluminium foil and spray with non-stick cooking spray. Lay out saltines in a single layer to cover.
- In a sauce pan, combine butter/margarine and brown sugar. Bring to a boil over medium heat and boil for 5 minutes or until the sugar is completely dissolved and the mixture if fully combined.
- Pour sugar mixture over prepared saltines and spread out with a spoon to cover the entire surface of the crackers.
- Bake for 5 minutes or until toffee bubbles.
- Remove from oven and top with chocolate chips. Allow to stand until chocolate chips are melting then spread over surface of crackers with a spatula.
- Allow to cool 30-45 minutes (this will go even faster in the fridge!)
- Break into pieces to serve!
