Ingredients:
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 cup oleo
- Saltine crackers
- 1 cup chocolate chips
- Nuts (optional)
Instructions:
-
Prepare: Begin by lining a cookie sheet with foil and spraying it with cooking spray. This ensures that the toffee won’t stick to the pan and makes for easy cleanup later on.
-
Layer Crackers: Next, arrange a layer of saltine crackers evenly on the prepared cookie sheet. The crackers will serve as the base for your delicious toffee creation.
-
Prepare Toffee Mixture: In a medium-sized pan, combine the sugar and oleo. Heat the mixture over medium heat, stirring constantly, until it reaches a rolling boil. This step is crucial for achieving the perfect consistency and flavor in your toffee.
-
Pour Over Crackers: Once the mixture is boiling, carefully pour it over the layer of saltine crackers on the cookie sheet. Ensure that the crackers are evenly coated with the toffee mixture for uniform flavor throughout.
-
Bake: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Place the cookie sheet with the toffee-coated crackers in the preheated oven and bake for 15 minutes. This allows the toffee to set and the crackers to crisp up.
-
Add Chocolate Chips: After baking, remove the cookie sheet from the oven and evenly distribute the chocolate chips over the hot toffee-covered crackers. The residual heat will help melt the chocolate, creating a smooth and luscious topping.
-
Optional Nuts: For an added crunch and flavor dimension, sprinkle nuts of your choice over the melted chocolate. Use a spatula to gently press the nuts into the chocolate layer, ensuring they adhere well.
-
Chill: Transfer the cookie sheet to the refrigerator and allow the toffee to cool and firm up. This usually takes about an hour, but you can leave it longer for a firmer texture.
-
Serve: Once the toffee has set, break it into individual pieces and serve. Whether you’re enjoying it yourself or sharing with friends and family, this homemade imitation toffee is sure to be a hit!
