Time 35m

Yield 20 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

Cooking spray
35 to 40 saltine crackers
2 sticks (1 cup) butter
1 cup light brown sugar
8 ounces semisweet chocolate chips (about 1 1/3 cups)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Line 1 large or 2 small jelly-roll pans with aluminum foil, spray with nonstick spray and arrange the saltines salt-side down in a single layer. In a medium saucepan, melt the butter and brown sugar together and boil until it turns a caramel color, a few minutes. Remove from the heat and pour over the crackers, covering them evenly. Put the jelly-roll pan into the oven and bake for 3 to 5 minutes, or until just bubbly, watching carefully. Remove from the oven and pour the chocolate chips over the crackers. When the chips melt a bit, spread them over the crackers with a knife. Transfer the pan to the freezer for 15 to 20 minutes, or until completely cold. They will form one big sheet. Break up into pieces. Store in an airtight container.

Tips:

  • Choose the right soda crackers. Not all soda crackers are created equal. For this recipe, you'll want to use a sturdy cracker that can hold up to the chocolate and peanut butter. Some good options include Ritz crackers, Club crackers, or Town House crackers.
  • Use high-quality chocolate. The quality of the chocolate will make a big difference in the taste of your candy. Use a chocolate that you enjoy eating on its own.
  • Be patient when melting the chocolate. It's important to melt the chocolate slowly and gently to avoid scorching it. Use a double boiler or microwave on low power, stirring frequently.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan. When you're dipping the soda crackers in chocolate, don't overcrowd the pan. This will make it difficult to get a smooth coating of chocolate on the crackers.
  • Let the candy cool completely. Once you've dipped the soda crackers in chocolate, let them cool completely before enjoying them. This will help the chocolate to set and harden.

Conclusion:

Soda cracker chocolate candy is an easy and delicious treat that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. With just a few simple ingredients, you can make a batch of candy that's perfect for parties, potlucks, or just a sweet snack. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy dessert, give this recipe a try.
