Reviews
- Great I've made these at Xmas my son loves them and the other kids it's a hit and it's super easy I add skor bits on top and put a teaspoon of vanilla extract in the butter and brown sugar just before I'm done boiling it I will add a half a teaspoon of baking soda this helps the Carmel bubble up it starts to fizz then I can pour it on top of the crackers works great
- Addicting. I use becel original margarine,as it's 92% canola and sunflower oils and I use semi sweet bakers chocolate that I melt in the microwave and pour on afterwards. I put it in the freezer for 5 mins and then in the fridge.
- It's a simple recipe. And it's flexible. You can use salted or unsalted butter depending on how you want the caramel to taste, i prefer salted, and i even use salted crackers. I top it off with a sweeter chocolate chaved or chips depending what i am in the mood for (and how much work i feel like putting into it lol).
- Good idea but the cooking directions are not quite right. I consider my bars a flop because they are way to sugary. I expected them to be more like toffee. The Ghiradelli chocolate chips (used more than 1 cup), do taste good. Still, I will probably throw them out. I will try to perfect this recipe to my desired texture without adding and wasting the chocolate chips.
- These were good. They are definitely better if kept in the refrigerator. Mine became soft if kept at room temperature.
Tweaks
- Instead of saltine crackers I used honey graham crackers & they were delicious!!
- I have made these for years but use graham crackers. They are extremely popular with family and friends. I make a batch topped with chopped almonds and a batch without. Also, these will not cut into pieces, they break apart.
