Nut Graham Fingers
- Prep Time: 10 minutes
- Cook Time: 15 minutes
- Total Time: 25 minutes
- Yield: 96 fingers
Ingredients:
- 48 graham crackers
- 3/4 cup butter
- 1 cup margarine
- 3/4 cup brown sugar
- Finely chopped nuts (for topping)
Instructions:
-
Prepare the Graham Crackers: Start by carefully breaking the graham crackers into ‘fingers’. You can do this by gently snapping them along the pre-scored lines.
-
Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a large cookie sheet with sides or a jelly roll pan with foil, and lightly spray it with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
-
Arrange the Crackers: Lay out the graham cracker fingers on the prepared baking sheet, arranging them side-by-side in rows with their edges touching. This will create a solid base for your cookie bars.
-
Make the Syrup: In a saucepan, combine the butter, margarine, and brown sugar. Heat the mixture over medium heat, stirring constantly, until it comes to a boil. Let it boil for about 2 minutes, or until it thickens and becomes bubbly.
-
Pour Over Crackers: Carefully pour the hot syrup mixture over the arranged graham crackers, ensuring that they are evenly coated. Use a spatula to spread the syrup to cover the crackers completely.
-
Add the Nuts: Sprinkle the finely chopped nuts evenly over the top of the syrup-coated crackers. This will add a delicious crunch and flavor to your Nut Graham Fingers.
-
Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake the crackers for about 5 to 8 minutes, or until the syrup is bubbling and the crackers are lightly browned. Keep an eye on them to prevent burning.
-
Cool and Serve: Once baked, remove the pan from the oven and allow the Nut Graham Fingers to cool for a moment. Then, carefully transfer them to a sheet of waxed paper to cool completely. Once cooled, they’re ready to enjoy!
