Equipment
- large rimmed baking sheet
- dry measuring cup
- chef's knife
- small saucepan
- small offset spatula
Ingredients
- 48 saltine crackers (a little more than 1 sleeve of crackers)
- 1 cup salted butter
- 1 cup light brown sugar
- 2 cups dark chocolate chips
- ⅔ cup chopped toasted pecans
- Flaky sea salt
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F. Line a baking sheet with a aluminum foil and parchment paper or a silicone mat. Arrange the saltine crackers in a single layer on the baking sheet.
- Combine the butter and brown sugar in a small saucepan and bring to a boil. Once bubbles begin to form, cook over medium heat for 3 minutes, stirring constantly.
- Immediately pour the mixture over the saltines and spread to cover completely. Bake for 5 minutes.
- Remove from the oven and sprinkle the chocolate chips on top of the crackers. Let stand for 5 minutes or until melted.
- Spread the chocolate evenly over the crackers. Sprinkle with the pecans and salt and let cool until hardened before breaking into large pieces.
