Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
- Cover cookie sheet with a single layer of saltines.
- Boil butter, sugar, and vanilla for one minute. Pour evenly over saltines. If needed, gently spread to make even. Bake for 7 minutes.
- While toffee is still hot and bubbly, pour chocolate chips evenly on top of candy. When the chocolate chips begin to melt, gently spread chocolate over toffee. Freeze for one hour. Break into pieces and enjoy!
- ***I have sprinkled nuts and/or drizzled white chocolate over the top of this candy to make it even better, but the basic recipe is outstanding as well. You can also change the type of chocolate that you use in the chips. White chocolate chips and milk chocolate both work, but make the candy incredibly sweet.***.

- Once the toffee is cooked, let it cool slightly before pouring it over the crackers. If it is too hot, it will melt the crackers and make them soggy.
- Sprinkle the toffee with chopped nuts or chocolate chips while it is still wet. This will add extra flavor and texture to the candy.
- Store the saltine toffee in an airtight container at room temperature. It will keep for up to 2 weeks.
