This is soooo good. I always get raves from the people who eat it. It is habit forming. I always give 1/2 of it away or i would eat it all.

Here goes:

Line a cookie sheet with aluminum foil. Put a layer of club crackers laying them flat, side by side on the foil. I usually alternate the rows. One going vertically, one going horizontally. Bring 2 sticks of butter and 1/2 cup brown sugar (firmly packed) to a boil. I usually put the burner on 4 and allow the butter and sugar to melt and blend together. Bring it to a boil for at least 1 minute. Do not scorch or burn.

Remove from the heat and put in 1 teaspoon baking soda. Stir it at this point real good. It will become frothy. Keep stirring to blend the butter. Pour this mixture over the crackers. You can use a spatula to help cover all the crackers well. Spread it from corner to corner and edge to edge.

Bake 7 minutes in a preheated over at 350 degrees. It will be brown and bubbly. Important to watch the time and not burn in the oven. Remove from the oven. I put it in the freezer to cool for 15 minutes. Or you can cool it on the cupboard. When it cools it will become firm. Melt a bag of milk chocolate chips (not semi-sweet or dark) on low heat in a pan or in the microwave. Stir to blend. When all is melted and smooth, spread with a spatula over the cooled toffee and crackers. Cool.

I put mine in the refrigerator for several minutes until firm. When cooled and firm, break into irregular pieces and enjoy. Store in refrigerator in warm weather.

You can also use Graham Crackers and it turns out to be very good. Give it a try sometimes.
