Ingredients
20-24Saltine crackersabout ¾ of sleeve
½cupbuttersalted or unsalted
½cupbrown sugarlight or dark
1cupchocolate chipsdark, semi sweet, or milk chocolate
Put a small amount of butter in the corners of a 9x13 pan. Place a piece parchment into the pan and press it down. The butter holds it in place. If you want to use foil, butter the top of the foil to prevent sticking.
Line the prepared tray with saltine crackers.
20-24 Saltine crackers
Preheat the oven to 325°F/160°C. Gather and measure out your toppings and have them ready to go.
In a 1.5-2 quart saucepan, melt the butter and brown sugar over medium heat. Stir frequently. The butter may look like it's separating, but just keep stirring and heating it up and it will come together.
½ cup butter, ½ cup brown sugar
Bring the mixture to a rolling boil (turn up the heat if needed) and boil for 2-3 minutes. Turn the stove off and carefully pour the hot caramel over the saltine crackers. Spread it out in an even layer.
Place the pan in the oven and bake for 8-10 minutes or until you see the entire top covered in bubbles from the caramel.
Remove the pan from the oven and sprinkle the chocolate chips over the top. Cover with foil or another baking pan and let sit for 4 minutes.
1 cup chocolate chips
Remove the cover and spread the chocolate in an even layer.
Break up the mint Oreos into 4-6 pieces per cookie and place them on top of the chocolate. Spread them out some but don't worry too much about placement.
4 mint Oreos
Add the M&M's to the top and then mini marshmallows. Top with sugar pearls and sprinkles. Refrigerate uncovered for 1 hour.
⅓ cup mint M&M's, ½ cup mini marshmallows, 1 Tablespoon gold sugar pearls, 1 Tablespoon green colored edible confetti sprinkles
Once the chocolate has set, remove the parchment and the toffee from the tray and break it into pieces. Serve and Enjoy!
