# Instructions:
01 -
Preheat oven to 400°F (204°C). Line a baking sheet with foil ensuring the bottom and sides are completely covered.
02 -
Place saltine crackers on the foil to cover the bottom of the baking sheet. Break crackers into smaller pieces as needed to fill in any gaps.
03 -
In a medium saucepan over medium-high heat, melt unsalted butter. Stir in brown sugar and mix until fully dissolved. Bring to a boil and cook for 3 minutes without stirring.
04 -
Carefully pour the hot butter and sugar mixture over the crackers. Use a rubber spatula to ensure all crackers are fully coated.
05 -
Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake for 5 minutes.
06 -
Remove the baking sheet from the oven and immediately sprinkle semi-sweet chocolate chips evenly over the hot crackers.
07 -
Let the chocolate soften for 2 to 3 minutes. If not melted enough, return the baking sheet to the warm oven briefly. Spread the melted chocolate evenly over the crackers using an offset spatula or the back of a spoon. Add sprinkles if desired.
08 -
Allow the toffee to cool completely. Refrigerate to speed up the cooling process. Once cooled, break the toffee into pieces. Store in an airtight container.
