For the Toffee Base

  • 40 pieces Saltine crackers the crispy foundation for this delightful treat

Step-by-Step Instructions for Churro Saltine Toffee

  • Preheat your oven to 400°F (204°C) while you prepare your baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  • Arrange Saltine crackers in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they touch but do not overlap.
  • In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine the unsalted butter and brown sugar, stirring constantly until melted and boiling, about 3-5 minutes.
  • Pour the boiling toffee mixture over the arranged Saltine crackers and bake for 5-7 minutes, watching for bubbling without browning.
  • Remove from the oven and sprinkle semi-sweet chocolate chips over the hot toffee, letting them soften for 2-3 minutes.
  • In a small bowl, mix granulated sugar with cinnamon for the topping.
  • Sprinkle the cinnamon-sugar mixture over the melted chocolate and finish with a light sprinkle of sea salt.
  • Allow the toffee to cool completely at room temperature for about 30 minutes before breaking into pieces.

Notes

Use parchment paper to line your baking sheet for easy cleanup. Keep an eye on the boiling mixture to avoid burning.
