- These are SO good! I could eat the whole pan. I crushed my pecans up and sprinkled them on. I will definitely make these over and over.
- I made 2 toffee bar recipes and this one was my favorite of the two. I used cinnamon graham crackers. Excellent! :.)
- these are great,they are even better when you use graham crackers instead of saltines.
- Delicious but I do two things differently. First, I line baking sheet with aluminum foil and lightly spray with PAM. Makes for no sticking and easy clean-up. Second, as soon as the crackers come out of the oven, I put chocolate chips on and start spreading.
- These are simple to make and a crowd pleaser. Taking suggestions from other reviews, I now prefer to use graham crackers rather than saltines.
