Salted Toffee Oyster Crackers - A layer of oyster crackers covered with toffee sauce & baked - a sweet, salty, crunchy snack.

Provided by Susie Gall

Categories     Snack / Nibbles / Appetizer / Dessert

Time 10m

Number Of Ingredients 5

4 cups Oyster Crackers
½ cup dark brown sugar
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper or other seasoning - optional
½ cup salted butter
Coarse Sea Salt or kosher salt (to taste)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400F.
  • Line a baking pan with aluminum foil then spray the foil lightly with cooking spray.
  • Melt butter in a medium sized, heavy-bottomed, saucepan set over medium-low heat. Add brown sugar and cayenne pepper (if using). While stirring gently and very slowly, bring the mixture to a boil slowly and over steady heat. Use a candy thermometer to check the temperature. Continue stirring very slowly and gently (it is a slow process). Boil 3-4 minutes or until the thermometer registers 270°-290°F and becomes lighter in color and "fluffier". Turn off the heat and add the oyster crackers."
  • Now, working quickly so the brown sugar/butter mixture doesn't set up, pour the toffee/oyster crackers onto the prepared baking sheet and try to spread them out to a single layer. (If it is too difficult to spread the crackers into a single layer at this point, don't worry - it will be possible in a few minutes.)
  • Sprinkle the crackers lightly with coarse sea salt or kosher salt.
  • Place the crackers on a middle rack in the hot oven and bake 2 minutes.
  • Remove the crackers from the oven and smooth them out to a single layer.
  • Place back in the oven and bake for 3 more minutes.
  • After a total 5 minutes baking time, remove from oven and place the pan on a cooling rack to cool for 5 minutes.
  • Once they are cool enough to handle, pick up the edges of the aluminum foil that is under the crackers and bring the edges together so the crackers roll together.
  • Remove from the foil, break into individual pieces and place on foil or parchment paper to cool completely.
  • Store in an airtight container.

OYSTER CANDY



Oyster Candy image

No! It doesn't have oysters in it. It's smooth, creamy chocolate. I found it in another one of those church cookbooks I love. The recipe is simple but a bit tempermental, follow the directions carefully. I don't really know how long it takes from start to finish. It depends on how long it takes the chocolate to get to the right consistency.
