Steps:
- 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Cover a cooking sheet with aluminum foil. Place graham crackers in a layer on the sheet, without overlapping. (They should fit perfectly, but you might have to turn some of them sideways.) NOTE: If you break the crackers into squares at this point, it will make it easier to cut them later. I figured this out AFTER I made them. =^..^=
- 2. Sprinkle the graham crackers with toffee bits...
- 3. ...then nuts. (This is when you could also sprinkle a few Rice Krispies, too, if you want.)
- 4. In a small pan, melt butter & sugar together over medium-high heat, NOT STIRRING. (This is important!) You can swirl the mixture in the pan occasionally. When the mixture starts to boil, REDUCE heat and cook at a rapid simmer for 2 minutes, swirling occasionally.
- 5. Once the butter & sugar mixture is syrupy, remove from the heat and immediately pour over the graham crackers.
- 6. Bake in the oven for about 10-12 minutes, until the syrup is bubbling.
- 7. Remove the pan from the oven & place on a wire rack. Immediately sprinkle chocolate chips (and/or butterscotch chips) over the graham crackers. (NOTE: I used the entire bag of chocolate chips but it was, and I don't say this often, too much chocolate for me. So I've listed a smaller amount in the ingredients section. But suit yourself, as I always encourage!)
- 8. NOTE: You can leave the chocolate chips as they are or spread the chocolate with a knife, if you want, after waiting a few minutes until the chocolate chips soften. You could also add the raisins or craisins before spreading the chips.
- 9. Sprinkle with coarse salt. (I actually do this with my fingers to make sure it all doesn't end up in one spot!) It doesn't take much!
- 10. Cut the bars into 2 inch squares with a pizza cutter or sharp knife. If you broke the graham crackers up into squares early, this will be REALLY easy!
- 11. Cool completely on the cookie sheet, but I usually put them in the refrigerator to set the chocolate once they finally cool enough to do so.
- 12. Carefully peel the aluminum foil from the backs of the bars. (Don't ask me how I know this!) Store in an airtight container for up to a week.

Steps:

Tips:
- Use a heavy-bottomed saucepan to make the toffee so that it doesn't burn.
- Stir the toffee constantly while it's cooking to prevent the sugar from crystallizing.
- Once the toffee has reached the desired color and consistency, pour it onto a greased baking sheet and let it cool completely before cutting it into bars.
- For a richer flavor, use dark chocolate instead of semisweet chocolate.
- For a salty-sweet flavor, sprinkle the toffee bars with sea salt before serving.
