Ingredients

Scale

40 saltine crackers
1 cup unsalted butter (2 sticks)
1 cup light brown sugar
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
1/2 teaspoon sea salt

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Arrange the saltine crackers in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the unsalted butter and brown sugar together, stirring until it reaches a gentle boil. Let it boil without stirring for about 3 minutes until bubbly and slightly thickened.
Pour the hot toffee mixture evenly over the saltines, ensuring each cracker is well-coated.
Bake for 5-7 minutes until bubbly and golden brown – watch closely to prevent burning.
Remove from the oven, sprinkle chocolate chips over the hot toffee, let sit for a minute, then spread into an even layer. Combine granulated sugar and cinnamon, and sprinkle generously on top.
Allow to cool completely before breaking into pieces for serving.
