Steps:
- Line cookie sheet with tin foil and lay saltines touching in a single layer. (If there is excess room on the cookie sheet, fold up the foil so the crackers stay close together and the butter doesn't seep away from the crackers.)
- Combine sugar and melted butter (the sugar will not dissolve). Evenly distribute mixture, being sure to cover all the crackers with some butter and sugar.
- Bake for 10-15 minutes at 350 degrees. While baking, the butter will start to look frothy and bubbly. Be sure to remove from oven as soon as butter turns a light golden brown.
- Once removed from the oven, push crackers together as they may of moved or overlapped while baking. Immediately sprinkle with peanut butter and chocolate morsels. Let sit a few minutes to melt then use a spatula to spread it over all the crackers.
- Top with pecans (pressing them with your hands into the chocolate will help them stick a little better) then cool in the refrigerator. Break into bite size pieces and store in a closed container.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 350°F.
- Line a cookie sheet with foil.
- Arrange crackers snugly in a single layer, filling the sheet completely, about 40 crackers.
- In a saucepan, melt the butter over medium-low heat.
- Add the brown sugar and mix well.
- Pour the butter mixture evenly over crackers, spreading as necessary.
- Bake 8-10 minutes, or until the butter is bubbly.
- Remove the sheet from the oven and sprinkle chocolate chips over the crackers.
- When the chips have softened, spread them over the crackers with a knife.
- Sprinkle immediately with the nuts.
- Let the cookies cool 5-10 minutes before cutting between the individual cookies with a spatula.
- Remove them to a plate, keeping them in a single layer.
- If you don't remove them while they are still warm, they will stick to the foil.
Tips:
- Use fresh saltine crackers. Stale crackers will not hold up well in the toffee and will become soggy.
- Be careful not to overcook the toffee. It should be a light golden color and have a slightly thick consistency.
- Work quickly when pouring the toffee over the crackers. It will start to set quickly, so you want to make sure it is evenly distributed.
- Let the toffee bars cool completely before cutting them. This will help them to hold their shape and prevent them from crumbling.
- Store the toffee bars in an airtight container at room temperature. They will keep for up to 2 weeks.
Conclusion:
Saltine toffee bars are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. They are a great way to use up leftover saltine crackers and are always a hit with kids and adults alike. With just a few simple ingredients, you can make a batch of these toffee bars that will be sure to satisfy your sweet tooth.
