Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400°F/200⁰C .
  • Place crackers in a single layer on the Stone Bar Pan.
  • Bring the butter and brown sugar to a boil, and continue boiling for 3 minutes, or until thermometer reads 265°F/129⁰C.
  • Remove from heat and pour over crackers, and use the Icing Spatula to carefully spread toffee mixture evenly all over.
  • Bake for five minutes.
  • Remove the stone from the oven, then pour chocolate chips all over the crackers.
  • As the stone retains heat, the chocolate will begin to melt. Use the Icing Spatula to evenly cover the crackers.
  • Add sprinkles to the chocolate OR chopped pecans or almonds if using. Let cool at room temperature for 1 hour, then refrigerate or freeze for another hour.
  • Use the Slice ‘N Serve to cut into pieces. Enjoy!

Notes

This recipe is very forgiving with MOST ingredients!
- switch to salted butter for a saltier flavor
- use dark brown sugar OR light brown, whatever you have or prefer!
- We used sprinkles ONLY due to a nut allergy (we were gifting some of this recipe). You can use your favorite nits, sea salt, or holiday candies for a fun and festive  topping twist!
DON'T - use cheaper chocolate chips, as they do not melt very well. For this recipe use the good stuff such as Ghirardelli or Guittard.
